BLT Pasta Salad Recipe | Allrecipes image

This is an easy but flavorful pasta salad that I'm always asked to bring to potlucks. With chunks of onion, tomato, and bacon, smothered in Ranch dressing, it is full of flavor! This salad tastes best if made several hours ahead of time.

Categories     Tomato Pasta Salad

Total Time 3 hours 25 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 10 minutes

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (16 ounce) package medium seashell pasta
1 pound sliced bacon
1 ½ cups light Ranch-style salad dressing
1 small onion, chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add the pasta, and cook until tender, about 8 minutes. Drain, and rinse under cold water to cool.
  • Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat until browned and crisp. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
  • In a large bowl, stir together the Ranch dressing, onion, and tomatoes. Mix in the cooled pasta. The pasta will absorb some of the dressing, so don't worry if it seems like too much. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight. Crumble bacon over the top just before serving.
