RANCH PASTA SALAD RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook rotini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes; drain.
• Place bacon in a skillet over medium-high heat and cook until evenly brown. Drain and chop.
• In a large bowl, mix mayonnaise, ranch dressing mix, garlic powder, and garlic pepper. Stir in milk until smooth. Place rotini, bacon, tomato, black olives and cheese in bowl and toss to coat with dressing. Cover and chill at least 1 hour in the refrigerator. Toss with additional milk if the salad seems a little dry.

Steps:

• Boil your pasta according to package instructions. You want the pasta to be al dente so it's not overcooked.
• While your pasta is boiling, gather all your other ingredients.
• In a medium bowl, mix up your Hidden Valley® Original Ranch® Seasoning, Salad Dressing & Recipe Mix Packet with the mayo, sour cream, milk and garlic powder and set aside.
• Place all other ingredients in a large bowl.
• Once your pasta is finished, rinse under a cool stream of water until all the pasta is cool.
• Place the pasta in with the other ingredients, add the dressing and toss until well-coated.
• Chill or serve right away.
