BLT Pasta Salad

Recipe Description

I adore this BLT Pasta Salad for a number of reasons. One, it combines some of my favorite ingredients – bacon, lettuce and tomato. Two, it looks great – I use bow tie pasta but you can use fusilli or shells or any pasta shape you like! Three, it is so quick and simple to prepare – I use store bought ranch dressing and barbecue sauce so I don’t even need to whisk up a dressing!

To make this, you simply cook and drain the pasta. Mix it together with the classic BLT ingredients in a large salad bowl and pour over the dressing and sauce. There you have it – delicious, quick and easy!

To make my version of BLT Pasta Salad, you will need the following ingredients:
