Two of my favorite summer treats are cold salads and a nice BLT sandwich. If you also enjoy these foods, you will love this dish. The dish is the ultimate combination of a BLT sandwich and a cold pasta salad. BLT pasta salad is rotini noodles with bacon, lettuce, and tomato tossed in a delicious sauce. The sauce is a combination of mayo, lemon juice, chicken flavored instant bouillon and sugar. This salad is perfect for parties, picnics or other indoor and outdoor events. If possible, it is a good idea to add the lettuce just before serving so it is crispy. This recipe is very simple and can be prepared within a half hour. Enjoy.

Very easy and very yummy. I let dressing, bacon and pasta sit overnight in fridge and added other veggies just before serving. A big hit!

I made this as a BLT salad...without the pasta. It was very tasty. I plan to make it with the pasta in the summer. My husband likes it without the pasta so next time I will make toast triangles or croutons to go with it. That would cut the bite down and smooth out the flavor. Heck, I would eat this stuff between two pieces of toast! It's good.
