Ingredients
-
1 (16 ounce) package bow-tie pasta (such as Barilla®)
-
2 teaspoons vegetable oil (Optional)
-
1 cup frozen peas
-
1 cup creamy salad dressing (such as Miracle Whip®)
-
¼ cup milk
-
1 (1 ounce) package ranch dressing mix (such as Hidden Valley®)
-
1 ½ teaspoons garlic salt
-
1 (16 ounce) can mushroom stems and pieces
-
2 cups chopped broccoli florets
-
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
-
½ cup bacon bits
-
⅓ cup diced red onion
-
⅓ cup chopped green onion
Directions
-
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook bow-tie pasta at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add peas; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Let cool.
-
While pasta cooks, mix salad dressing, milk, ranch mix, and garlic salt together in a large bowl until smooth. Add mushrooms, broccoli, 1/2 the Cheddar cheese, bacon bits, red onion, green onion, and cooled peas. Mix thoroughly. Refrigerate salad until pasta is done.
-
Drain pasta and rinse with cold water. Mix thoroughly into the salad. Top with the remaining Cheddar cheese and refrigerate until ready to serve.
Cook's Note:
Feel free to cook the frozen peas any way you like.
