I'm giving this 5 stars een tho I had to adjust the recipe somewhat. I didn't have beef bouillon granules on hand or red bell pepper. I used apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar (personal preferance). I also added about 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese (to compensate for the lack of other ingredients). We loved it! Thanks for sharing!

Thank you Karena for a great recipe! You're right about its popularity! This recipe makes a ton! The only things i might change are: Less red onion or use a sweeter variety like a peruvian red or vadalia or even to switch it up, green onion in place of it. I used bread and butter pickles, and 3/4 of the mayo called for. If anyone doesnt like the acrid taste of the onion, but still wants to include it, just chop it coarsly like the recipe but before adding to all the ingredients put in a bowl with a fat pinch of salt, stir and let it sit for 15-30mins, then rinse and taste then add to the salad.

I was skeptical of this because of the beef bullion. I didn't have the granules, I used Better than Bullion. This is SOOO good! I made it because the reviews were so good, and I'm glad I did! This will go in my regular recipe list for sure!

My kids and I loved this pasta salad. I made a few changes. I used Barilla Piccolini Mini Farfalle with Tomatoes and Carrots pasta. I substituted a few items since I was using what I had on hand. I used a sweet onion, sweet pickle relish and chicken bouillon granules in place of a few items. I omitted the tomatoes, salt, and garlic. Definitely a keeper recipe.
