Ham & Pineapple Pasta Salad
Ham & Pineapple Pasta Salad
I made this on 11 Jun 2023, easy to put together. The Thai family and I loved this! Excellent flavor. Highly recommended.
Ingredients
For the Salad
- 250 grams dry bow tie pasta, (8 oz)
- 1 can pineapple, sliced or tidbits, reserve juice, (14 oz / 400 g)
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups cooked ham, diced
- 2-3 spring onions, thinly sliced, green and white parts
For the Dressing
- ½ cup mayo
- ⅓ cup pineapple juice
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper, to taste, as desired
Instructions
- Prep the ham, bell pepper, spring onion, and pineapple. Drain and reserve the juice from the pineapple as you will need some for the dressing. If you have tidbits, use them as is, if you have sliced rings, then cut them into pieces. Add the prepped ingredients to a mixing bowl.
- Heat a pot of salted water to a boil, then add the pasta and cook until just tender. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking.
- While the pasta is cooking, add the Dressing ingredients to a small mixing bowl and mix together until smooth.
- Add the drained pasta and dressing to the salad ingredients, gently mix together. Cover and place in the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours.
- Serve as a light lunch or dinner, enjoy.
