The green beans
and bacon give a boost of flavor to this potato salad recipe. Without the addition of mayonnaise
and the use of turkey
bacon
rather than regular bacon, this potato salad recipe has fewer calories and less fat
added for a healthier option.
 
Directions
  • Cut turkey bacon into bite size pieces and fry in a large skillet until crisp. Remove
    turkey bacon from skillet and place on paper towel to remove any excess fat.
  • Slice
    potatoes (unpeeled) into bite size pieces and cook in boiling water until just tender, approximately
    15 minutes. While potatoes are boiling, stem beans and cook for 8 minutes or until just tender
    and slightly crisp.

  • While the beans are cooking, combine the dressing ingredients and whisk together.
  • Drain
    potatoes and beans and then place potatoes, beans, and bacon into a serving bowl. Pour dressing
    on top and toss.
  • Serve at room temperature.
