Turkey Pasta Salad
What a great way to use your leftover Thanksgiving turkey. This is a Turkey Pasta Salad unlike any I have made before. It has a hint of lemon juice, apple cider vinegar and herbs. My husband and I both loved this salad a lot!
Adapted from: Favorite Brand Name Country Christmas
Ingredients
In a large bowl toss together
the turkey, celery and parsley.
Add the cooked pasta and toss gently.
In a small bowl place the mayonnaise
(or Miracle Whip), vinegar, lemon juice,
oil, green onions (or chives) and dried basil.
Whisk together and let sit for 5 minutes.
Pour over the pasta mixture.
Gently toss the dressing with the
pasta making sure it is all covered.
Refrigerate until cold and serve.

I love these type pasta salads. Question…I tend to add tarragon to my chicken and turkey salads. Do you think it would work well here?

and/or parsley.
