Notes

Serve Ranch Pasta Salad in a big bowl or individual servings. Great as a side dish for grilled meats or as a light main dish on its own. Sprinkle cheese or herbs on top for a finishing touch. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Best enjoyed within 3 days, adding more ranch dressing if needed before serving. For a lighter version, swap ranch dressing with a Greek yogurt-based dressing and add herbs like dill or parsley.
