Polynesian Pasta Salad

Description
Great cold pasta on a hot summer day! When it is too hot to turn on the oven or stove, this is my go-to! It is also wonderful for picnics, make ahead, grab and go. I make it the night before and reserve some dressing to ensure the pasta is coated.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Pasta (Shells, Bow Ties, Anything Bite Size)
- 1 can (11 Oz. Size) Mandarin Oranges
- 1 can (20 Oz. Size) Pineapple Chunks, In Juice
- ¼ cups Scallions (Omit The White Parts), Sliced
- ½ cups Celery, Sliced
- 1-½ cup Turkey Ham, Cubed
- _____
- FOR THE DRESSING:
- 2 Tablespoons Pineapple Juice
- ½ cups Mayonnasie
- ⅓ cups Sour Cream
Preparation
Cook pasta a minute or two shy of how long you would normally cook it. Pour pasta into a strainer and cover with ice to cool.
Mix cooled pasta, mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, scallions, celery, and turkey ham.
Mix dressing ingredients. Coat pasta, and chill.
I serve this with Hawaiian Sweet Rolls.

Yes you do drain the fruit- reserving the pineapple juice for the dressing.

Just wondering if you are supposed to drain the fruit
Sounds good but I don’t want to mess it up
