For a lighter dressing, substitute Greek yogurt for half of the sour cream. Add a sprinkle of chopped walnuts or pecans for extra crunch. If you don't have celery root, you can substitute a teaspoon of celery seeds. This salad is best served cold. Make it ahead of time for easy entertaining.

A vibrant and refreshing pasta salad that perfectly balances sweet and savory flavors. Tender mostaccioli pasta is tossed with juicy red grapes, savory turkey, and a hint of celery root, all coated in a creamy, tangy dressing. Served on a bed of crisp romaine lettuce, this salad is a delightful combination of textures and tastes.
