Add Step-by-Step Photos	Justjakesmom / All my dishes 1 year, 1 month ago This is just a simple cold pasta salad using ingredients I had in the pantry/fridge. It's a great side dish to salmon (which is what we had) or chicken, pork chops, or steak. It's your vegetable and starch in one dish - all you need. You can add/s...

Ingredients

8 oz. (dry) cooked salad macaroni (you can use whatever pasta you prefer)

Chopped roma tomatoes (I only had 2, but 3 would be better)

1/3 cup chopped sweet onion (approx. - I don't measure, sorry)

bunch of ciilantro (leaves only) chopped (about 1/3 cup)

1 small can sliced black olives (drained)

1 tsp minced garlic

1/2 cup mayonnaise (more/less)

1 Tbls yellow mustard (Frenchs, I just squirted it in)

1/2 tsp dill weed - approx. (or you can use dill relish, or if you prefer, sweet)

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil (I drizzle with just before serving because it seems to soak up the mayo while in the fridge, just to moisten, and stir)

Directions

Add chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, olives, garlic to large bowl

Add cooked macaroni (or pasta)

Add mayo and mustard, stir in

Add dill weed (or relish), salt and pepper

Adjust seasoning and mayo to taste

Sounds easy and tasty...I'd prolly use the dill, as you did, and I like that there's no added sugar to this...I don't enjoy the sweet taste in such salads...and LOVE the addition of cilantro! :) Thanks, dd...great addition...and, mmmmm...salmon! ;)

I made this again last night and added some dried Italian seasoning to it - just shook it in - it really was a nice addition to the flavor. ;')

Me again! Made this yesterday with some changes - turned out pretty good. Added finely chopped green peppers, mexican oregano, some shredded cheddar, and used sour cream and about a 1/2 cup chipotle mayo in place of regular mayo. ✄ dill weed and mustard (omitted)

Me again LOL made this again today sans the olives cuz I didn't have any and added fresh basil and rosemary along with some leftover guacamole - actually not bad. LOL
