Ranch Pasta Salad

Written by

This pasta salad is the one! Easy to make and filled with lots of flavor! It will be a family favorite! One of our most loved picnic dishes to make and take as a side dish or main dish for all to enjoy.
I like to eat it by itself in a big bowl as a snack, treat or quick meal. It’s so addicting!
The best Pasta Salad so far! It contains Ranch Salad dressing which is everyone’s favoriate flavor, plus vegetables, chesse and meat. All of these ingredients are so good that the combination of textures and flavors will “pop” in your mouth with every bite.
Add some Italian herbs like fennel, basil or oregano to give it that extra punch of flavor. Enjoy with some barbque and corn on the cob.

1 cup Greek yogurt
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 Packet ranch dressing mix
