This tangy pasta salad with dill pickles is quick to make and tasty to eat. It's great as a side dish or light meal. I first made it for my husband and myself because it was too hot in our apartment to cook and too hot to want a hot meal!

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 6 servings

  • 3 cups rotini pasta, uncooked

  • ⅔ cup mayonnaise

  • ⅓ cup chopped dill pickles, or more to taste

  • 1 tablespoon mustard

  • 1 tablespoon red wine vinegar

  • 1 teaspoon white sugar

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • ⅛ teaspoon celery salt

  • 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add rotini and boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes.

  2. While the pasta cooks, mix mayonnaise, pickles, mustard, vinegar, sugar, salt, pepper, celery salt, and garlic powder together in a bowl.

  3. Drain noodles, then rinse under cold water until cold. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in dressing until noodles are fully coated. Add additional pickle chunks to taste. Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.

Tips

You can use whatever kind of pasta you have.

You can always put the noodles in the freezer for a couple of minutes to cool them faster.
