Wonderful salad. Would add celery and bacon and cheese. Maybe also cauliflower. I love crunchy food and the pasta salad is great.

I made this a few weeks ago for a potluck and it went over great and it was so simple to make. For my taste next time I will add a bit more ranch dressing but this really is a great salad. I am making it this weekend for a bbq.

I have made this salad several times now... It's awesome and leaves very little left overs it is so popular. One thing I recommend is if you buy the carrots bagged pre-shredded at the store, to cut them a little smaller. I am now getting requests for it when invited to parties. Thanks Betty!
