- Add the shredded carrot, corn, peas (if using), and ham or chicken to the mayonnaise mixture. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
- When the pasta is ready and drained, add it to the bowl with the other ingredients. Mix everything gently so that the sauce evenly covers the pasta and other ingredients.
- If desired, add chopped parsley for a touch of freshness and color.
- Refrigerate the pasta for at least an hour before serving, so that the flavors mix and the dish is well chilled.
- Serve the pasta as a side dish or as a main dish. It’s great for barbecues, picnics and other informal occasions.
