Dill Pickle Pasta Salad

I also added cheese, black olives, hard boiled eggs and potatoes- couldn’t resist. I used more pickle juice in the dressing too. This recipe is a great base to add whatever you prefer in addition!

We love this salad. I made it for a dinner party to go with my smoked ribs and everyone raved about the flavor. In the past 3 weeks I have made it 3 more times and my wife and I get into it all the time. It is one of our favorite dishes I make!

6.9.18 This is a nice pasta salad, the dill pickles are the star. So many pasta salads taste too mayonnaise-y to me, but the addition of the red wine vinegar gives this some tang. In the future, I’ll probably add a few chopped onions and cut back the basic salt, but increase the celery salt a bit, since that’s a nice flavor in this salad. Garnished with some sliced olives for a little pop of color. notimetocook, thanks for sharing your recipe, we enjoyed it!

Well, it is ok. But the picture shows pimento stuffed olives and not dill pickles!

I had a hankering for a pasta salad but didn't want a lot of ingredients or it to be sweet. This more than fit the bill! I made it as written and have been enjoying it. It does dry out after a day in the fridge, but adding a bit more mayo takes care of that.
