    Prep Time:       Cook Time:       Total Time:  

1 lb shell shaped or corkscrew pasta
Olive oil, enough to generously coat noodles

Sauce
1 cup mayonnaise (more or less)
1 cup sour cream
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup white sugar
15 turns of the pepper grinder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tbsp salt
1 tsp garlic salt
2 tsp Dijon or Creole mustard

Salad
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1/2 of a medium red onion, chopped
1 can of black olives, sliced in half
8 oz of cheddar cheese, shredded
Couple splashes of milk, optional
1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
4 slices of bacon, cooked and crumbled

Boil the pasta according to pkg direction; drain, rinse well and set aside to dry. Toss with a light sprinkling of olive oil to thinly coat the pasta.

Combine the remaining sauce ingredients, add pasta and stir well. Add the bell pepper, red onion, black olives and cheese and mix well. Add a splash of milk if desired, and stir until creamy, adding additional milk as needed. Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight.

Just prior to serving, add the chopped tomato, stir and serve with a sprinkle of the crumbled bacon on top.
