My husband (and me) are big fans of the Betty Crocker Suddenly Salads. We particularly are fond of the Suddenly Salad Ranch & Bacon Pasta mix. I have been buying the box mixes for the last couple months and have been wanting to find a recipe to make it from scratch that would taste similar. I don’t mind buying the box mixes, but making my own sounds like more fun! Okay, so I found a recipe I thought would work for me.

Now here goes the my version of the recipe I found ….

Ingredients:

2 cups – Small shell pasta

2/3 cup mayo – I prefer the Kraft Mayo w/Olive Oil

1 package Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing Mix

8oz young peas (drained)

1/4 cup shredded baby carrots

1/2 tsp onion powder

Bacon Bits – (I used 1/3 cup of the Oscar Meyer Real Bacon Bits)

Directions:

You will want to cook your noodles as directed on package. Once cooked, rinse with cold water and drain.
Add mayo, ranch dressing package, carrots, peas, bacon bits and onion power. Stir ingredients until well mixed. You may want to cool in fridge for 1 to 2 hours before serving.
Enjoy

You can find a ton of yummy pasta salad recipes at the Betty Crocker website too!
