Family Pasta Salad

I like the fact that this salad has 'make ahead' in the directions, and the longer the better makes it easy to throw together while making supper the night before. And by family pasta salad I mean it 'technically' has all the food groups in it, so on busy nights could substitute as a complete meal (maybe with a hot dog on the side??).

 

Family Pasta Salad

1 3/4 c. bowtie pasta
1/2 c. mayo
1/2 c. sour cream
2 Tbsp. cider vinegar
1 1/2 tsp. Dijon mustard
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 tsp. dill weed
1/4 tsp. salt
2 c. red grapes, halved
2 c. diced ham
1/2 c. green onions, chopped
1 1/2 c. cheddar cheese, cubed

Cook pasta according to package directions. Combine mayo, sour cream, mustard, sugar, dill weed, salt and pepper in small bowl. Drain pasta and put into large salad bowl. Add all ingredients including dressing, mix. Refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight. (I have done 4 hours and it turned out good too)
