d Acini de Pepe. Cook at a rolling boil until Acini de Pepe is done. Drain and
rinse with water, drain again and cool to room temperature. Combine egg mixture
and Acini de Pepe, mix lightly but throughly. Refrigerate over night, in an ai
r tight container. Add remainiong ingredients, mix lightly, but throughly. (I u
se a huge Tupperware bowl with a lid) Chill. Salad may be refrigerated as long
as a week in air tight container.
Variation- Add red (or green) food coloring to pasta as it cooks. May add a pac
kage of colored marshmallows.
I add the marshmallows and this makes a good pot luck recipe as it makes a big
portion.
