I can't find Suddenly Salad anywhere these days. Last summer I was able to find only the Italian flavor at the Sur-Save. Now there's nothing. What am I to do without it?! Nothing says summer like "suddenly salad"! Those succulent shells with their hidden treasure of seasoned mayo...and maybe even a fake piece of bacon! Well, here's what you do. You don't start a petition. You google it and steal from people who have already done the thinking.
Ingredients
2 cups uncooked shell pasta
4-5 peeled baby carrot, shredded or 1 large regular carrot
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
3/4 cup mayonnaise, more if desired (but NOT miracle whip)
1/2 (1 ounce) packet hidden valley ranch dressing mix
1/4 cup bacon bit (I use Hormel REAL bacon bits or pieces)
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Directions
1. In large bowl, mix mayo, dressing mix, bacon bits, shredded carrots and onion powder. Chill while making the rest.
2. Cook pasta according to pkg. directions for pasta using the shortest alotted time. (Or cook al dente.).
3. Drain and cool.
4. Fold in pasta well. Fold in peas last, carefully.
5. Chill for several hours.
6. If needed, refresh salad with a tiny bit of mayo before serving.
7. and garnish top with more bacon bits/pieces.
