3. In a large bowl, stir cream cheese, dressing, mayonnaise, salt and pepper; mix well. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel, if desired, and cut into cubes. Stir into mayonnaise mixture along with drained green beans, onion and garlic. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with chives or dill, if desired.
