Ranch Pasta Salad! Holy cats Batman, you’ve got to try this!
This was the easiest pasta salad I have ever made. The broccoli, peas and spinach came from my garden. I picked up the pasta last week for free. I scored the Ranch packet last year and the sour cream, well that was free to with my Costco Rebate Check.
Wahoooo! Living on the edge is fun baby! I LOVE making recipes that don’t cost me a dime.
I’ve already had one bowl of this Ranch Pasta Salad for lunch, let’s hope just hope there will be enough left over when for dinner tonight! Yumm-O!
This recipe rocks! I hope you love it as much as I do.

Looks good but would definitely file it away as a summer recipe. Too cold here now, we like hot foods now.

Looks like it would be good warm!

It’s summer when I found this! I love trying new salads at our family dinner on Sundays when our grown kids and grandkids visit!
I think this might call for some real bacon bits!
