In this time-honored, secret family treasure found in a dusty, handwritten stack of well-worn recipe cards, you'll find something crafty and unexpected--sour cream, mayo, and mashed egg yolk dressing--as well as an extraordinary perk up from pickles, pickled onions, bell peppers, and cubed Cheddar cheese.

Pasta salads are such wonderful summer dishes and this one is a real goody! No pickled onions for me (or vinegar in any form at all) so we will leave those out but everything else sounds perfect to me so I am going to be making it this coming weekend for a gathering we are hosting at our home.
