Happy Hump Day!!!! Well here we are on the brink of summer fun with the Memorial Day Weekend coming upon us in just a few days. To me, nothing says summer weekends like a good pasta salad. I don't think there has ever been a pasta salad that I haven't liked.....ever! So last week I had a hankering for some of that wonderful summer spread and was running little light on ingredients and really didn't feel like running back to the store....well let's just say.....for the third time. I thought, well, why can't I just make up my own recipe, so I did! I hope you enjoy as much as we did, we had an empty bowl by the end of dinner, what more can a mom ask for to show that a recipe was a home success!
Dilly Bacon Pasta Salad
1/2 lb cooked macaroni, drained
6 slices of of chopped fried bacon
1/2 chopped vidalia onion
5 celery stalks chopped
1 cup cherry tomatoes cut in half
3-4 cups mayo
1 tbsp dried dill
salt and pepper to taste
Throw it all in a bowl and gently mix together. Start with 3 cups of mayo and add to however "wet" you like your salad. Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving to let flavors mix.
Now how is this for fast and easy! My husband is not a nut fan, but I would say this would be great with some chopped walnuts or pecans mixed in for some extra crunch and texture.
ENJOY!!!
