Dill Pickle Pasta Salad

Dill Pickle Pasta Salad: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

I kept on seeing posts for this salad on Pinterest and Facebook and every time I saw it I would say to my self, I really need to make that it looks really good and sounds like something my family would really love.

Holy cannoli! This salad was amazing! Absolutely delicious! I am so glad that I made it sooner than later. Next time I make it will without a doubt be doubling it, because it did not last long in our house.
