Winter Pasta Salad with Creamy Mustard Vinaigrette

My Sweetheart's mother gave me this cookbook for Christmas. That, coupled with my recent decision to plan out my meals at the beginning of the week (and, just to make it more exciting, to pull all recipes from the same book) had me thumbing through the book and I landed on this.
It was good. I didn't blow me away, but it was good. The sauce reminded me of Broccoli Potato Salad upon which I lived through grad school. It was super easy and a great way to sneak some more vegetables in a diet. However, I would suggest cutting the amount of pasta in half.
I would make it again for a picnic but, with so many other delicious salads out there (and because of it's similarity to my beloved Broccoli Potato Salad) I probably won't make this again on my own.
But it was still good.
