The dressing is the real winner in this recipe! I used the dressing from this recipe on a simple pasta salad (shell pasta, celery, onion, and a grated carrot)and it came out wonderful. I reduced the vinegar by half like one of the other reviews suggested and did everything else according to the dressing part of the recipe and it turned out super.

This recipe makes a great staring off point for me. I followed others' suggestions and reduced the amount of vinegar. I also left out the hard-boiled egg and sunflower seeds. I added sun-dried tomatoes and a little dill for some extra flavor. Also, I used real cheddar cheese instead of American. I loved it this way!

We thought this salad was "ok", nothing exciting. It's always fun to try something different but after a couple of bites of this one, we never touched it again.

This was a very good pasta salad! My kids who usually are VERY picky, loved it. I just added 1 TBSP of red wine vinegar instead of 2 and I omitted the last 2 salad ingredients. I will definitely make this again!

This was OK -- but nobody was impressed enough to eat it again. I thought the vinegar was overpowering.

This recipe is a winner! I did not have any red vinegar, ranch dressing or eggs and it was still awesome!!! I used Marie's creamy caesar dressing instead of the ranch and left out the vinegar and egg. Will definately use this recipe again!

Delicious. I used miracle whip instead of mayonnaise because it was all I had and it was a bit to vinegary for my liking so I suggest using real mayonnaise to keep the creaminess. Maybe cut the vinegar if you'll be using miracle whip.

Excellent salad. Very simple to toss together and the flavors blended well. I might try adding some diced tomatoes to it next time, but other than that wouldn't change a thing!

I Have to say this is the best Pasta Salad for ease and the wonderful taste. I have fussy teenagers not to mention their 5 friends that seems to be always over when i make this dish. No matter how much i make there is never left overs... A hit in this household
