GREAT recipe! I love the dressing! I cut the mayo in half and it was still plenty, This is a lovely, rich and slightly tangy dressing! Thanks!

I halved the recipe for a party but it was still a lot of pasta! It went down a treat, and the little that was left kept well and was so simple to make. Besides halving the amounts, I stuck exactly to the recipe and it was delicious! Will definitely be making this again, thanks for the recipe! =)

Enjoyed this alot. I did make a few changes to suit my family's tastes. I omitted red onion and cucumber and replaced with shredded carrots. I used 16 oz. sour cream instead of 8 oz. as I omitted plain yogurt. thanks again
