    Yum. I'll make this when Dave comes home--the kids aren't big macaroni salad fans for whatever reason.

    This sounds really good. I love the Ranch Suddenly Salad. I just hate paying for the box. This will work well. Thanks.

    I'm also going to have to give this a try. We're a bit tired of the regular pasta salad, so this one might do the trick.

    Thanks, I bookmarked it. My MIL and I like pasta salads, but rarely make them. This sounds easy and tasty.
