This is another recipe that I took some help from the boxed pasta salads at the grocery store. I love the flavor and I really like the fact that it makes a smaller amount so nothing goes to waste here at our house. I didn’t add the corn because I have a corn hater in the house and I used super tiny pieces of broccoli because the corn hater also hates broccoli. Crazy, I know! This recipe came from the Betty Crocker website.
Ranch Pasta Salad
1 box Betty Crocker Suddenly Salad classic pasta salad mix
1 cup frozen corn
1/2 cup Hidden Valley Spicy Ranch
1 tbsp lime juice
1 1/2 cups small broccoli florets
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
4 medium green onions, sliced
Fill a pan 2/3 full of wate rand bring to a boil. Add the pasta from the box and boil uncovered for 12 minutes. Add the corn during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
Drain pasta and corn very well.
In a salad bowl, stir together the seasoning mix, dressing, and lime juice. Then stir in the corn and remaining ingredients.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator until serving.
Serve with tortilla chips if desired.
Makes 6 servings.
Happy Cooking!
