DIRECTIONS:

• Set aside 1 tablespoon of green onions and half of the bacon for garnish
• In a large bowl, combine drained pasta, half of the bacon, chicken, tomatoes, green onions, and cheese.
• Add Ranch dressing of your choice, we prefer Greggs Ranch Dressing from Costco. Use as much as you like.
• Toss well to combine then refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. This will add to the flavor!
• Garnish with sliced avocado if using and remaining bacon and green onions.

NOTES:

*Use any type of Ranch dressing you like or make your own.
*Purchased Rotisserie chicken is a great choice because it’s already cooked and ready to fall apart!
*Leftover pasta salad can be kept in the fridge in a covered container for up to 4 days.
