Instructions
Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and rinse. Set aside to cool a bit. Add cucumbers and onions. Whisk together the sugar, oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic salt. Pour over pasta-vegetable mix and combine thoroughly. Tastes best if it chills together for a couple of hours before serving.
Author's Comments
I'm not a big fan of pasta salad, but even I like this one. I tweaked it to my taste from a recipe in my treasured "Thymes and Seasons" cookbook by the Illinois Valley Herb Guild.
