Blue Cheese Potato Salad
"Found this in Good Housekeeping, June 2008 issue. I have a husband who really likes blue cheese, but is not fond of eggs, so this one really fits him to a "T". Made it for company and everyone wanted the recipe--no one had tasted anything like it. I have used both Yukon gold and russet potatoes, can't taste much of a difference, but the fresh green beans are an absolute MUST! Enjoy."

This was awesome on my initial taste test. I can't wait to see what it tastes like when the flavors come through after being refrigerated overnight. My husband said, " I am really going to like this"
