Ingredients

  • 1 lb. Pasta such as Rotini or Bowtie
  • 2 c Fresh Broccoli Florets
  • 1/2 Onion diced
  • 1/4 c Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 c Sour Cream
  • 1/4 tsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Creole Mustard
  • 1 tsp White Vinegar
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • Cracked Black Pepper
  • 1.5 – 3 tsp Pickled Diced Jalapenos depending on how spicy you like it
  • 1 tsp Dried Dill
  • 1/4 tsp Sugar granulated

Instructions

  • Bring enough water to a boil to cook pasta. When water is boiling, add pasta and cook for 10 minutes. The last 5 minutes of cooking throw your broccoli florets in with the pasta to cook.
  • While the pasta and broccoli cook, in a large mixing bowl add all wet ingredients, onion, jalapenos and seasonings. Mix well.
  • Once pasta and broccoli are done, drain well and rinse with cool water until it’s cooled. Make sure it drains well.
  • Add to the dressing mixture in the mixing bowl and stir to combine.
  • You can serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator. If you chill it in the fridge, take it out 15 to 20 minutes before serving.
