I thought this was a very good pasta salad. I love the ingredients , but I think next time (and oh you bet, I'll make it again) I think I'll just stick with an Italian dressing. Not sure what it is , can't put my finger on it , but I think it's the canned milk. It just doesn't quite do it for me but , like I said , I love the ingredients to the salad itself , so it will be made again! Thanks so much for posting!
