I watched diners drive-ins and dives and the once show had a wonderful looking pasta salad called Mama's Mac Salad that I just had to try and recreate, so here is my version! I used bow tie because that is what I had in the cupboard, the true Mama's salad uses shells, but use what you want or have on hand. The box said 6 servings- but once everything was cooked and mixed together it looked like more so I am guessing on the servings being 8.

Steps:

- Whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, mustard and spices in the largest bowl you have- you will need it!
- Taste and adjust salt etc to your taste.
- Throw in onion, bell pepper, cool pasta and cheese. Toss a lot to coat completely and mix everything around, taste again and sprinkle any additional spice you might want to add mixing well after each addition.
- Place in a sealed plastic container and refrigerate several hours before serving.
