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. Â 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.

BLT other than between two slices of bread, I never thought it would be possible, what a great idea. Thanks for the out of the box idea.
Great picture! Looks yum-licious!
My S.I.L. makes this recipe, it is delicious! Nice change for a pasta salad.
Wow. I don’t even eat red meat and this looks amazing.
love BLT. this recipe is a keeper! thanks 🙂
WoW! This recipe looks amazing and a great picture. You really take great pictures of your foods/recipes. This would be a perfect summer-time meal, in itself. ♥
have to try that one!!
What a tasty looking pasta salad! Great idea!
made this today! it was so easy! smells great! cant wait to taste it! hope my hubby likes it!
I made this salad last night for supper and the hub and I both loved it! Thanks for another yummy recipe.
Love your recipes. Have tried many of them and never been disappointed. Thanks, Thanks….
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.
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!
