- 1 1/2 cup tomatoes diced
- 1 cup Swiss cheese cubed
- 1/2 cup red onions thinly sliced
- 1 pound bacon cooked until crispy and chopped
- 2 cups romaine or iceberg lettuce finely chopped
- salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the pasta according to directions until cooked al dente.
- Drain pasta and toss with enough ranch dressing to lightly coat the pasta, so it doesn't stick together. Refrigerate until cold.

- Add enough dressing to generously coat everything and season with salt and pepper to taste
Notes
Cover this salad with plastic wrap or place in an airtight container, and store in the refrigerator for 3-4 days. This salad is just as good the next day, so you can make it ahead of time.
