Notes

  • Nutritional value is approximately per 1 cup
  • Storage
  • Storage
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days. 
  • Substitutions
  • Substitutions
  • Pasta - Rotini is our favorite for this because of the crannies for dressing, but another with a lot of nooks and crannies like fusilli or farfalle. 
  • Sour Cream and Mayo - You can adjust the ratio of the two, but be sure to have at least 1/4 cup of sour cream for the thickness to match the liquids being added. 
  • Onion - White or yellow is the best. 
  • Apple Cider Vinegar - This is our favorite for this because it's the mildest and slightly sweet, but if in a pinch, you can use white vinegar, too. 
  • Make Ahead
  • Make Ahead
  • You can absolutely make this pasta salad ahead, but as with all mayo-based salads, be sure you don't dress too early.  Cook the pasta and mix it with the celery, onion, and dill pickles and set aside and make the dressing and set it aside, but assemble before serving.  The pasta will absorb the mayo which means it won't be as creamy and dreamy as if assembled fresh. 
  • Make Extra Dressing
  • Make Extra Dressing
  • While this salad will last in the fridge for up to 5 days, to refresh it the following days, make a little extra dressing to store in the fridge to freshen it up.  It's not necessary, it's still delicious up to 5 days out, but it's not as creamy. So if you want to keep it same-day creamy, have a little extra dressing to mix in.
