BLT Pasta Salad
Report
BLT salad takes the classic flavors of one of my favorite sandwiches and turns them into a super fresh, super crave-able summer side dish (or the best work-from-home lunch ever!)

Instructions
- Whisk the dressing ingredients together and taste to adjust.
- Cook the pasta until al dente. Rinse under cool water to bring it to room temperature, then drain well. I sometimes dump the pasta onto paper towels to remove the excess water. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
- Coat the pasta with about 1/2 of the dressing. Taste and add extra salt if needed.
- Add the chopped bacon, red onion, lettuce, and tomatoes to the bowl along with the rest of the dressing. Toss everything together gently with the rest of the dressing to combine, and serve immediately or keep in the fridge for up to a couple of hours before serving.
