Recipe Tip

For best flavor, be sure to salt the water when you boil the pasta.

Variations

Peas or broccoli would also be a good addition to this Creamy and Tangy Pasta Salad if you want more veggies. I would add them to the boiling pasta the last minute of cooking. If you like a little sweetness in your pasta salad, you could add a teaspoon or two of sugar.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3 days. It will get dry over time as the pasta absorbs the mayonnaise and sour cream. You can add a little more mayonnaise to it.
