Personal Notes:
This is a recipe I found on the internet and adapted for doing the meals for the football team. Make sure you use a BIG bowl, or distribute ingredients equally in multiple bowls.

This was a favorite for the football boys and it transported well. I did sometimes add more mayo/sour cream if making the day ahead because the pasta absorbs some of the 'sauce'.
