Potato and Green Bean Salad

This is my new favorite potato salad. Extra olive oil and good balsamic vinegar really makes a difference in the taste. I am looking forward to the warmer weather to make this at my next bbq but this can be served all year as a fabulous side dish.

I just made this for my son's birthday bbq! It was awesome! I used baby red potatoes as I couldn't find any new ones at the farmer's market...but I don't think it hurt the dish one bit. This is so flavorful and delicious! Thank you for posting!

This is fantastic. Had it tonight with grilled lean steak. My husband and 14 year old daughter loved it. Cured my craving for potatoes too! I did add a clove of garlic finely minced because...well..we love garlic.
