Ingredients

Instructions 

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to the directions.
  • While the pasta is cooking, mix up the dressing. Whisk together the mayo, yogurt, mustard, chives, pickle juice, pimento juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper and smoked paprika until creamy.
  • Once the pasta is finished cooking, you can run it quickly under cool water to cool it down. I like to wait until the pasta is cool to the touch to continue.
  • Pour the dressing over the pasta and toss it well. Stir in the pimentos and white cheddar. Toss everything together well. I like to let this sit in the fridge and really come together for 20 minutes or so before serving,
  • Garnish with the extra chives, the blossoms and microgreens if you wish. Serve immediately!
