Here's an easy summer salad for potlucks, ladies luncheons and picnics. Tricolor spiral pasta and broccoli florets are coated with a mild dressing and bits of bacon. Margie Shaw of Americus, Georgia sent the recipe. Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) tricolor spiral pasta, cooked, rinsed and drained |
3 cups broccoli florets |
1/3 cup finely chopped onion |
1/2 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons fat-free milk |
1 envelope reduced-fat ranch salad dressing mix |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
6 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the pasta, broccoli and onion. In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, milk, salad dressing mix and salt. Add to pasta mixture; toss to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, stir in bacon. Yield: 12 servings. |
