Chicken, bacon and ranch is a fabulous flavour combination that goes so well in a pasta salad! This is a pretty simple pasta salad with pasta, lettuce, tomato, avocado, cheddar cheese, chicken, bacon and the ranch dressing. You can use whatever cooked and sliced or shredded chicken you want; I like to use ranch grilled chicken for even more ranch flavour but leftover rotisserie chicken also works well! You can change the ingredients in the salad as you like but no matter how you make it, this salad is an amazing option for any food occasion this summer!
