| 1 | Package | frozen cut green beans (9 ounces) |
| 1 | Can | roasted sweet red peppers (7 ounces, drained) |

Prepare green beans according to package directions. Cut roasted peppers into ½-inch strips. Reserve 2 tablespoons for garnish. In large bowl, mix mayonnaise, milk, lemon juice, salt, sugar, and basil. Add potatoes, beans, olives, and pepper strips. Gently toss to coat. Garnish with reserved pepper strips. Sprinkle with coarsely ground black pepper. Serves 12.
I generally reduce the mayonnaise to ½ cup.
