Cucumber and Dill Pasta Salad
" A very refreshing salad for anytime of the year. Best during the summer with fresh-from-the-garden cukes. "
2 cups uncooked macaroni pasta
2 cups peeled and chopped cucumber
1 cup chopped tomatoes
1 (8 ounce) carton light or non-fat sour cream
1/2 cup skim milk
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill or 1 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon coarse ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon vinegar
Cook pasta in boiling salted water until al dente. Drain, and rinse in cold water. Transfer noodles to a large bowl.
In a separate bowl, mix together sour cream, milk, dill, vinegar, and salt and pepper. Set dressing aside.
Mix cucumbers and tomatoes into the pasta. Pour in dressing, and mix thoroughly. Cover, and refrigerate at least 1 hour and preferably overnight. Stir just before serving.
