Notes
- Instead of the dressing and lettuce, you can use a package of Dill Pickle Salad Mix to toss into the salad.
- When boiling pasta, make sure it’s cooked al dente or slightly undercooked in order for it to hold its shape well as a cold salad.
- For best flavor, let the salad chill in the fridge for at least one hour before serving. Serve cold.
- Since this dish contains mayo, do not let it sit out for more than one hour.
