Primo Pasta Salad Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Primo Pasta Salad Recipe). At the last minute, I was told to bring something for a potluck at work. Not having the time to go shopping, I used whatever I had on hand and used a dressing my mother always used on her potato salad. The salad was a hit at work. Takes a little time to make but is well worth the effort.
