  3. Mix mayonnaise and sour cream together in a small bowl. Combine pineapple, grapes, Cheddar cheese, and pineapple juice in a large bowl, mix in mayonnaise mixture, ham mixture, and pasta. Mix well before every serving.

Recipe Note

Shell pasta with ham, cheese, and pineapple--very good for large group get-togethers. Pasta lasts up to one week in a refrigerated sealed container. This salad is easily doubled and it will all be gone!
