Green Bean and Potato Salad


Green Bean and Potato Salad


from the Houston Junior League Cookbook

INGREDIENTS:

1 package frozen French-cut green beans, cooked and drained
4 medium potatoes, boiled, peeled and diced
1 medium onion, chopped
4 – 6 Tablespoons bacon drippings
3 – 5 Tablespoons vinegar
  Salt and pepper
1/2 to 3/4 cup mayonnaise
1 small can (8 ounce) tiny whole beets or sliced beets
  (optional)

TO PREPARE:

Mix warm beans, warm potatoes and onion.  Add 4 Tablespoons bacon drippings and 3 Tablespoons vinegar.  Taste for seasoning.  Add salt, pepper, more bacon drippings or vinegar as needed.  Let stand at room temperature for about 1 hour.  (Bacon fat will congeal if salad is refrigerated too soon.)  Then refrigerate salad.  Just before serving, mix in mayonnaise.  Garnish with drained beets if desired.  A good change from potato salad.

SERVES: 8
