My lovely colleague, Susie turned me onto this pasta salad! This is a staple in my house! It has two of my favorite things. Ranch and pasta! It’s a given that this is honestly one of my most favorite dishes! Y’all have to try this recipe at home for yourself! Y’all are gonna love it!!

What you’ll need:

1 box of Rotini pasta (I use the Protein+ noodles)

Small container Cherry tomatoes halved

1 large broccoli head cut into small pieces

1 large can black olives

1 small jar green olives

2 bell peppers

1/2 red onion chopped fine

1 small jalapeño minced

Ranch Style Dressing:

1/2 cup of mayo

1/2 cup of sour cream

1/2 cup of milk

1/4 tsp Tony’s Seasoning

2 tbsp Dill

1 tbsp fresh Chive

1 tbsp Cilantro

1 tbsp fresh Parsley

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 tsp garlic powder

1/4 tsp pepper flakes

1/4 tsp smoked Paprika

2 tsp lemon juice

Directions:

Boil pasta with 1 tbsp salt until al dente. (8 minutes). Drain and put in fridge to cool. Wash and cut all fresh veggies to size. Drain olives and cut them in half. In a separate bowl, mix all ranch dressing ingredients together and chill for about 20 minutes. Add pasta, all veggies and dressing. Mix together in a large bowl until all ingredients are well incorporated. Chill in fridge for at least 30 minutes to an hour for best results.

Top with a little fresh parsley, and slices of lemon.

Serve and enjoy!
