I gave this 3 stars as an average. We had it for dinner tonight and the opinions varied from "bleh" to "ok" to "4 stars" But I have found that everyone has their own favorite when it comes to pasta or potato salad. Thank you for sharing yours.

I only had 454g boxes of pasta so I upped the miracle whip a touch. I don't like tomatoes so I dodn't use any and I'd reduce the relish to 1 tablespoon, it was a bit over-powering. I did enjoy the flavor though, I'm a sucker for pasta salad with miracle whip in it.
