CREAMY CONCHIGLIE PASTA SALAD
Made by creating a dressing of sorts, this is the old Southern way of making pasta salad. Using celery, red and green bell peppers, onion, salad cubes (sweet pickles) with a blend of mayo, seasonings, and vinegar, the pasta melds into a wonderfully creamy, cold side dish that's perfect for cookouts and family gatherings, as well as Sunday dinners.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add shells and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 9 minutes. Drain in a colander, rinse briefly with cold water, and drain again.
- Combine celery, red and green bell pepper, pickles, green onion, vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon seasoning salt, and pepper in a medium bowl; mix well. Fold in mayonnaise and sour cream until well blended. Taste and add additional seasoning salt if needed. Fold in pasta.
- Cover and refrigerator at least 4 hours, or overnight.
- Remove from the refrigerator. Fold in Cheddar cheese and serve.
