For an extra layer of flavor, try grilling the corned beef slices briefly before cutting them into pieces. If you prefer a tangier flavor, add a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the Thousand Island dressing. This pasta salad is best served cold, but can be enjoyed at room temperature as well. Consider adding some chopped dill pickles for an extra burst of flavor and crunch.
