Delicious BLT Pasta Salad So Good Your Guests Will Beg For The Recipe

I love pasta salad – I mean, all pasta salads. They're all my favorites. It's filled with wonderful ingredients – I mean, there's bacon – and has such a beautiful color when it's all put together. If you tend to do pasta salads for reunions or potluck, this is a good one to try. It only takes about 25 minutes including prep time, so it's fast and easy. And of course, it's delicious. What wouldn't you love about a bow tie pasta salad that has bacon, lettuce, purple onion, tomatoes, and other yumminess?

The dressing is what's really great about this. It's completely homemade so you can really brag when people eat it up. The dressing has mayo, lemon zest, and so many other wonderful flavors that all work together to make this the most delicious pasta salad you've ever tried. I think even kids are going to love this one, and since it's so easy to make, it will quickly become your go-to when you need a tasty side dish that will go with just about any meat you may be cooking up.
