Instructions

  • Cook the pasta according to package directions. Drain and then rinse under cold running water until cool.
  • While the pasta and bacon are cooking, whisk together the mayo, ranch mix, dill pickle juice, garlic powder and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Add the cooked pasta to the bowl with the dressing and stir to combine.
  • Add all of the remaining ingredients and stir gently.
  • Chill until ready to serve. This pasta salad lasts in the fridge for 3-5 days. You can leave the bacon out until ready to serve if you want it to stay crispy.
