This is my absolute favorite way to make Pasta Salad. I'm going to give you the recipe the way they have it printed...but I'll let you know I dont measure any of this. What I do is simply cook the noodles that I want--add the ingrediants that I like which of course varies on whats on sale and what I'm feeling like I want in my pasta salad that day. For me personally, I have found NO better! I'm not a huge fan of those pasta salads that are made with the store bought I Italian Dressings...I just like the dressing that you mix up on your own.
Ok--here ya go!
1 Lb Seashell Pasta 1 Cup White Sugar
2 Cups chopped Cucumber 1/4 prepared mustard
2 C. Chopped Broccoli 1/4 distilled white vinegar
1 Cp. Shredded Cheese 3/4 vegetable oil
2 TB mayonnaise
OKKK thats their directions! Now let me tell you how I made mine this weekend--I cooked the noodles i wanted--added what i wanted for stir ins and then I just dumped in the sauce stuff unlike I liked the taste! I always add more mayonnaise then they state and always LESS sugar.
Just play with the dressing mix until you like the flavor--I'm sure you'll LOVE serving this, this summer! Enjoy!

Dawn, about the little wooden wagon. Check at Big lots if you have one. I got mine there on sale for 60.00. Lowes also have them this year but there are charging 99.00 for the same thing. Hope you find one soon.
This sounds delicious Dawnie.
