This was delicious. I cut the recipe in half, since there was only the 2 of us and there was still some left for lunch the next day. I also used fresh dill/parsley. I don't like the taste of the dried. :)

This was a very good pasta salad. It was a little different than most as it had dill pickles and radishes in it. I used reduced fat mayo and sour cream and ended up using only about 1/2 of the dressing (personal preference). I also used multi-grain pasta. With the changes I made I think it still had great flavor, but was a little more figure friendly. Thanks for posting LizAnn.
