Not long after I graduated from high school – I bought a small magazine-like cookbook called Pasta while I was waiting in line at the grocery store to check out. I still have it and flip through it at least once a year. It holds many classic recipes that are fun to me to look through over and over again. The Bacon Ranch Pasta Potato Salad is a spin on a recipe from that small cookbook that was published June 1998.
Let’s Get Crafty!
Boil each until cooked – then combine in a large bowl:
10 small red potatoes
1/2 pound pasta (generally boxes are 1 lb – so I cooked 1/2 box)
1/2 pound pasta (generally boxes are 1 lb – so I cooked 1/2 box)
This is great and more colorful with colorful rotini pasta but we didn’t have any on this day.
Other fun things to add:
Cooked bacon, chopped
Diced peppers
Dressing – mix together and then stir into the pasta and potatoes:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup ranch dressing
Refrigerate until ready to eat.
Thanks for stopping by. Hope you have a great day.
