I make this pasta salad all the time and everyone loves it! It's such an easy way to adjust the flvor by replacing the mayo with ranch dressing. Add whatever garden vegetables you like for a wonderful side dish!

I have used the box of salad mix before..but they added bacon and it changed the taste of the recipe so that I no longer use it..I wish they would go back to the ranch dressing without the bacon
