This salad was just okay. I wouldn't make it again.

The absolute first time I have ever been so impressed with a recipe that I felt I had to rate it. This is excellent! The dressing is so good and the longer the salad sits the better it gets. This one is a keeper!!

It tasted fine but it just wasn't enough for me to want to make it again.

I made this for Labor Day and it was a huge hit with many of the guests and I plan to take it to a pot luck picnic this week. I used half Hellman's Mayo & half Miracle Whip in the dressing. I substituted red pepper for the green pepper and left out the cucumbers. It has a great crunch and know we will enjoy it many times over. Thanks for the recipe!

I made this using only one onion, the small shells and substituted mayo for the Miracle Whip. My family loved it, but I do intend on trying some of the add-ins that were suggested.

Sorry, hate to write a negative review, but thought this was terribly BLAND. Added a bit of horseradish, celery seed, more vinegar, salt and pepper, and more Miracle Whip to get it just ok.

What an absolutely delicious salad! I was pleasantly surprised to see that this salad is huge! Just the right amount of dressing for all the lovely ingredients... a definite 5-star recipe!

I just loved this recipe. I used green onions, and used broccoli coleslaw in a package. I also used the small shells and used 14 oz of those. I know I changed it up quite a bit but everything worked so well together. I did not use the water chestnuts, but this dish never lacked for flavor. It makes so much I take it to our Church dinners and any other get togethers. Yummy!! Debbie in Texas
