CLUB PASTA SALAD
This is my favorite pasta salad. Quick,easy and tasty. My family loves this. You need to use the ranch and bacon suddenly salad mix but the ingredient list made me list it as classic. Got this from Betty Crocker a long time ago but made modifications. You can change the meat and use cooked chicken. I have even used lunch meat chicken and turkey in a pinch.

Steps:
- Toss all ingredients together in a large bowl and store in fridge. Make Healthier: ✔ Only use 2 eggs ✔ Use whole grain pasta ✔ Only use 4 bacon strips or bacon bits ✔ Use light mayo ✔ Use light ranch dressing ✔ Skip the salt and Nature's Seasoning
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful cheese, and a tangy dressing will make all the difference in your pasta salad.
- Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is still slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked pasta will become mushy in the salad.
- Cool the pasta before adding it to the salad: This will help to prevent the pasta from absorbing too much dressing.
- Don't overcrowd the salad: Make sure there is enough room for all of the ingredients to be evenly distributed.
- Use a variety of textures: A combination of soft, crunchy, and chewy textures will make your salad more interesting.
- Add some fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as basil, parsley, or oregano, will brighten up the flavor of your salad.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to pasta salad. Try different combinations of ingredients and dressings until you find one that you love.
