I love macaroni salad, but wanted something a bit lighter. I looked through a lot of recipes and combined the best of all, and added my special touch--this was a big hit even among folks who don't normally like macaroni salads. The peas are the real surprise.

Steps:

- Combine mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, sugar, dry mustard, salt, and pepper for dressing in a small bowl; mix well. Pour over pasta.
- Add dressing, green onions, celery, bell pepper, peas, and parsley to the pasta. Mix until well combined.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours before serving.
