Recipe Instructions

Step 1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add fusilli and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, 10 to 13 minutes.
Step 2
While the pasta is cooking, whisk together mayonnaise, sour cream, milk and Italian dressing mix in a medium bowl until smooth; set aside.
Step 3
Drain fusilli, then rinse under cold water and drain again. Transfer to a large salad bowl.
Step 4
Add thawed peas, salami, green onions, celery, olives, and parsley. Pour in all but 1/2 cup of the reserved dressing and mix until ingredients are well combined. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours to overnight.
Step 5
When ready to serve, remove pasta salad from the refrigerator. Stir, then add more dressing if it appears dry.
