pasta salad

It's almost summer!!  That means that we need to come up fun, easy, and delicious meals, because I don't know about you but the kitchen is the last place I want to be during the summer.

Here is a meal, or side, that I whipped up in less than 10 minutes.

Yummy bacon ranch pasta salad!

1 cup shell pasta noodles
4 slices bacon
1/4 cup cooked peas (or to your liking)
1/4 carrot grated (or to your liking)
1/2 cup ranch dressing

Put water in a sauce pan and bring to a boil, put in pasta and set timer for 7 minutes.  While water and pasta are boiling, slice up bacon and fry in a separate pan.  Once bacon is nice and crispy strain on a paper towel.  After bacon is done the pasta should be done, strain the noodles and put back in pan.  Add bacon to pan and mix, add peas and grated carrots, mix well.  After all ingredients are mixed well add ranch dress and mix, if 1/2 cup doesn't seem like enough dressing add more to your liking and TADA you're all done!! Enjoy!
