Making Creamy Pasta Salad is simple if you follow these easy steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside.
2. Prepare the Vegetables: While the pasta is cooking, prepare the vegetables by washing and chopping them into appropriate sizes.
3. Make the Dressing: In a large bowl, combine mayonnaise, mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
4. Combine Ingredients: Add the cooled pasta and prepared vegetables to the bowl with the dressing.
5. Mix Thoroughly: Gently toss everything together using a spatula until all ingredients are well-coated with the dressing. Adjust seasoning as necessary.
6. Chill the Salad: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. Chilling allows flavors to meld together beautifully.
7. Serve: Before serving, give the salad a good stir and garnish with fresh parsley or dill if desired.

These steps will guide you in creating this incredible salad effortlessly.
