I followed the advice from other reviews and did not add the sugar. I was sooo glad I didn't because the dressing is very sweet without it. I only used half of the dressing and it was plenty. Now I have enough dressing for another whole salad. I also used diced baby carrots and added broccoli. It is a pretty salad; very colorful. But it was just okay to me. Doubt that I'll make it again.

From other reviews I cut this in half and it was plenty for 1 box of pasta. It turned out good, different, but no one complained. I will add it to my summer salad mix. Thanks

I too omitted the sugar. I used fat free sweetened condensed milk and fat free Miracle Whip. I think next time I will halve the dressing recipes since it made A LOT and I had to toss about half of it. I added about 2 tsp hot sauce to give it a little zip (I love sweet/hot) and about 4oz mild cheddar cut into small squares. I used half a green pepper and half a red. It was a GREAT pasta salad!!

This was great, a little too sweet though so I also omitted the sugar. Next time I made it I was out of the condensed milk, so I left it out and added the sugar instead. I liked it better that way, it's still creamy enough with the mayo, and still not too sweet.

I recommend not adding the sugar. The condensed, sweetened milk makes it sweet enough. This was very tasty... I added chicken and small cubes of tangerine to it, too. I also opted for a red bell pepper instead of green. My husband said he would have liked pine nuts in it. Next time. :)
