German Pasta Salad

Cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Then shock them under cold water and place them in a large bowl.

Wash the bell peppers and tomatoes. Cut them into small cubes.

Also, cut the black forest ham as well as the baby dill pickles into small pieces.

If you want a little bit of a stronger flavor in your pasta salad, you can add a small red onion, finely chopped (completely optional).

Add all chopped vegetables and the onion (optional) to the bowl with the pasta.

In a separate small bowl, add the pickle juice, mayo, yogurt, salt, and pepper and mix well. Pour the dressing over the salad and mix until well combined.

Taste the pasta salad and add more spices, mayo, or yogurt to suit your taste.

We would recommend refrigerating the pasta salad for around one hour before consumption to allow the flavors to mingle.
