Whip up this easy bacon ranch pasta salad for your next barbecue or potluck. Bacon Ranch Pasta Salad Spring is definitely the best time of the year in central California. It’s a few months of perfect weather, where you don’t feel like melting and can actually enjoy being outdoors for long periods of time. We like to take advantage of the beautiful weather by enjoying picnics at the park and often eating dinner al fresco. During spring break a few weeks ago the kids asked to eat outdoors almost everyday, of course we happily agreed. While my husband grilled, I quickly whipped up this Bacon Ranch Pasta Salad. I’m always trying to find ways to change up our normal dinner meals and this pasta salad made a great side dish to our barbeque. It’s light and makes a great potluck meal. Bacon Ranch Pasta Salad
