CREAMY PASTA SALAD WITH BACON AND PEAS



Creamy Pasta Salad with Bacon and Peas image

There's nothing like a cold pasta shell that's coated in a luscious, silky blanket of bliss. But instead of full-on mayo, I swapped in half Greek yogurt for some subtle tang. It is so good. Perfect for a neighborhood potluck. Divine for quick lunches throughout the week.

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups medium pasta shells
6 strips bacon, halved
1 carrot, finely chopped
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 red onion, finely diced (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup Greek yogurt
1 lemon, zested and juiced
Coarse salt
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley, for garnish, optional

Steps:

  • Boil the pasta until al dente, then drain and rinse under cold water until cool.

  • Combine the pasta with the bacon, carrots, peas, onions, mayonnaise, yogurt, lemon zest and juice in a large bowl and toss until coated and fully mixed together. Season generously with a pinch of salt and give another toss.

  • To begin this pea pasta salad, cook and chop 6 strips of crispy bacon. To save time, pre-cooked bacon or bacon bits *may* be used, but we always recommend fresh ingredients for the best flavor. If you have an air fryer, bacon is super quick in the air fryer as well.
  • While bacon is cooking, boil mini pasta shells according to package directions, drain and rinse with cold water. Should the shells stick prior to moving onto the next part of the salad instructions, simply re-rinse the shells to "unstick" them and make sure excess water is shaken out well.
