I don't know about you, but when I think of Fourth of July I don't just think red, white, and blue. I think fireworks and pasta salad. I feel like everyone wants to show off their new pasta salads like it's a new car or something.
"OMG did you see Susan's pasta salad? It had some kind of seeds in it. Yes SEEDS!"
Oh Susan. Always trying to one up the next salad. I'm pretty sure I'm Susan in this story so I'm gonna share my pasta salad recipe that is currently packed and ready to roll.
BLT Pasta Salad
What you need:
1 lb of elbow pasta
1lb of bacon
1 container of cherry or grape tomatoes
2 to 3 green onions
1 cup mayonnaise
1-2 tbsp of white vinegar
Prepare your elbows to al dente. It should look like this when done:
Mix together your pasta, bacon, tomatoes, and onions. Once they are tossed together add your mayo and vinegar.
Voila! You have a pretty impressive salad that takes under an hour to prep. You can save time by cooking your bacon the night before. Just put it in a pretty red or blue bowl and it's all festive for the 4th!
Presentation is everything guys.. Look at that mayo all over the side of the bowl. So pretty.. Oh and that water bottle in the background is super sexy.. yeah. woops!
Take that Susan! I may have also made a fruit salad....
So tell me. Are you a Susan?
I hope you have a wonderful 4th! Stay safe out there kids!
