BLT Pasta Salad

A fun variation on our favorite sandwich, BLT Pasta Salad is full of bacon, pasta, tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, and ranch dressing. It is a great recipe for summer potlucks!

Can this recipe be made in advance?

Absolutely! Although we prefer to serve this dish fresh to keep everything nice and crisp, it can be made the night before serving. We like to prepare the pasta and ranch the night before, so the day of you just have to toss everything together.
