One of my families favorites! It is wonderful any time of the year. Super easy to throw it all together...especially with markets carrying "cleaned and bagged" green beans year round! Enjoyed by young and old alike! The colors are as bright and cheery as the taste! Enjoy!!

I served this with a 16 bean soup and it was the perfect light touch. I cut back on the egg after reading the reviews (I probably would have liked the original amout but I have picky eaters and would use less mayonaise next time around. I never would have put these ingredients together on my own but it was a great salad!
