There is a certain boxed pasta salad that I LOVE. But since I am trying to eat less processed things, I decided to make it myself. And I must say, it wasn't too far off! I diced some carrots and cooked them with peas in one pot. In another pot I cooked some noodles. While all that was going, I cooked bacon in the microwave. Once it was all ready, and cooled down, I mixed it together. The sauce is a ranch sauce. Since we make our own ranch anyway, I just did what I usually do (and by that I mean what K does since he makes it) and it turned out pretty well! It wasn't exactly better living through chemicals, but good enough to take away my craving
