Summertime Fun Pasta Salad

This creamy pasta salad has been making its presence known in my house for probably 10 years or so.

Recipe Summary Summertime Fun Pasta Salad

A light pasta salad both adults and kids will love. This is my own creation I am sure many have already tried. You can add or take away from this recipe. I usually serve crowds of 10 to 20 people, but I love to entertain so I also always serve this, spinach dip, potato and green salad, chip with dip and wings... This dish is always a hit!

Ingredients | Best Pasta Salad Dressing

1 ½ cups bow-tie pasta (farfalle)

1 (5 ounce) can white tuna, drained, or more to taste

1 cucumber, cut into small pieces

1 ½ cups ranch dressing, or more to taste

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook the bow-tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until cooked through yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes; drain and cool.

Mix tuna and cucumber together in a salad bowl; stir in cooked bow-tie pasta and ranch dressing. Chill at least 1 hour.

I prefer to make this the night before. If you do not have time I suggest letting it sit for a few hours before serving.

You can chicken or ham, just cut it into small bite-sized pieces.
