Easy Pasta Salad



  • Shell pasta
  • crumbled bacon or ham
  • hard boiled eggs
  • halved cherry toms
  • ranch dressing ( I used low fat)

This one is too easy...........cook the pasta and drain, then place pasta, bacon/ham, chopped hard boiled eggs, halved cherry tomato's into a bowl. Add ranch dressing to taste...add a little salt and pepper and you've got a nice pasta salad to serve on a bed of lettuce or it would be delicious with a nice piece of steak........
