A BLT incorporated with pasta?! Enough said. Needless to say, there were no leftovers. The dressing and ingredients in this side dish went together perfectly. This is the side dish of the summer and sorry friends and family, it's what I'm bringing to all the cookouts!
Again, forgot to take a picture of the dish so this is the next best.
