Pickle Pasta Salad
Calling all pickle lovers, this delicious Pickle Pasta Salad recipe is for you! Made with 8 simple ingredients, this pasta salad is creamy, flavorful and easy to make. If you love the flavor of dill pickles, you’re going to love this salad!
Ingredients
- 1 pound uncooked small shells, or rotini pasta
- 2 cups minced dill pickles, about 10-12 spears
- ¼ cup minced onion
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 ounce ranch seasoning packet, or 2 tablespoons homemade seasoning
- ¼ cup pickle juice, from the jar of pickles
- 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup fresh dill, chopped
Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to boil on the stove.
- Add the pasta and cook according to the package directions.
- Drain the pasta and rinse with cold water to cool down the pasta and stop the cooking process. Transfer the pasta to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the minced dill pickles, onions, sour cream, mayonnaise, ranch seasoning, pickle juice, Worcestershire sauce and fresh dill to the bowl with the pasta.
- Toss all of the ingredients together.
- Cover and place the salad in the refrigerator to chill for at least 30 minutes, up to 24 hours. This will allow the flavors of the salad to develop.
Notes
- This recipe can be made ahead of time. In fact, the pasta salad gets even better as it sits and soaks in the flavors of the dressing. If you’re making the salad 24 hours in advance, or more, be sure to cover it before placing it in the fridge.
- Leftover pickle pasta salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I always recommend eating the salad cold, and storing it in an airtight container to preserve the fresh flavors.
- To make this recipe gluten free, use gluten-free pasta noodles. My homemade ranch seasoning, linked above, is gluten free. The Hidden Valley ranch seasoning, pictured above in the blog post, is also gluten free. Always check the label on the Worcestershire sauce to make sure that it’s gluten free.
