CHEDDAR PASTA TOSS
This is from the Southern Living 5 Star Recipe Collection cookbooks. My mom has them and this is my favorite recipe out of the collection. It's so pretty for a luncheon or even a picnic -- sometimes I eat it for lunch. The presentation is so pretty with the tri-color rotini but sometime I just use whatever pasta I have on hand. I also double the dressing because I like a lot. The whole recipe also doubles very easily! Also for the ham I use lunch meat ham or the John Morrell's cubed ham. Enjoy! Chill time not included in cook time.

[email protected]This cheddar pasta toss was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper, and maybe some garlic powder or onion powder. The sauce was a little thin too, so I added some cornstarch to thicken it up.
