This was wonderful. Thanks for posting this recipe. I used Eddie's vegetable rotelli instead of the penne rigate. Also, I used regular mayonnaise because I didn't have the low-calorie type on-hand. And finally, I substituted mandarin oranges for the pineapple because I had some handy. Everyone loved this salad and I will make it again this summer.
