I cut the dressing down to 1 cup mayo and 1 cup sour cream, 2 tbsp dill and 1 tbsp lemon pepper. I thought the 3 cups made too much dressing for a pound of pasta. - 04 Jul 2002 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This has become "my" pasta salad recipe that I take to picnics and barbecues. It's nice and creamy, although I think it calls for a little too much dill. I half the dill, and the salad still has a good taste, but it's not overpowering. I also like to add about 1/8 cup of parmesan cheese for a little extra flavor. - 16 May 2002 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This is a ton of mayo and sour cream. I cut way back on that and the dill and also added spices and a lot more vegies with the addition of feta cheese. - 20 Sep 2002 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
