Green Bean and Bacon Potato Salad Recipe
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.
