This was served at our church potluck luncheon. Potlucks are a great place to try new recipes, and also to take a favorite one to share. I have a similar recipe, called “Overnight Salad,” that doesn’t use the pasta or ham, but adds cabbage. This makes a nice size salad and would be great as a meal in the summer, or for lunch with some homemade bread. It can be made the night before, which is handy if you are having guests.

The picture, if I can copy it off well enough from the printed recipe, shows it in a trifle bowl, so that you can see the different layers before being tossed.
