List of Ingredients




1 3/4 cups farfalle pasta
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 1/2 tablespoons prepared Dijon-style mustard
1 teaspoon white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon dried dill weed
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups seedless green grapes, halved
2 cups diced ham
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1 1/2 cups diced sharp Cheddar cheese

Recipe



Cook pasta in a large pot of boiling water until al dente. Drain, and rinse in cold water. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, cider vinegar, mustard, sugar, black pepper, dill weed, and salt. In a large bowl, combine pasta, grapes, ham, green onions, and cheese. Toss with dressing. Cover, and chill overnight or for at least 6 hours.


Reviewer's Suggestions:

Sea shell shaped pasta holds up better.
Double the dressing - too dry without it.
Replace cider vinegar with lemon juice.
