Sweet and Sour Pasta Salad image

This has been made by my family for years; not sure where it came from. Great for cookouts or picnics since there is no mayo. Best if made the day before to let flavors blend. Serve with your favorite chicken, pork, or beef as a refreshing side dish. You can substitute red, yellow, or orange peppers for the green to add extra color to this dish.

This salad was a total flop. The dressing was way too sweet and the pasta was overcooked.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more seasoning.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think I can fix that by adding some more vinegar to the dressing.
