I had some left-over roast beef that I needed to use up. This recipe was the perfect thing. Very different from any pasta salad I have tried but we thought it was wonderful. The beef bouillon in the dressing provided enough saltiness that I didn't feel the need to add any extra salt. We liked the mayo-dill flavor as well. An unusual mixture of ingredients that we thought was very flavorful and unique. This is worth making when you are in the mood for something different.

Your salad was great. I've been looking for a good salad recipe to use up left-over grilled beef for years & this is the only one my husband & I found worth eating. It almost has a ranch dressing flavor, which we love. Thanks for posting.
