Man it has been so stinking hot here, hitting in high 90’s and even 100 degrees! Summer is in full swing already, and I am all about staying in where it is cool hiding out! I have found being pregnant I get hot so much easier, and it is like I get hotter than I normally do.

I made this Ranch Macaroni Salad today for us to have tonight for supper with our Ham Loaf I get from our local Butcher Block! I just pop the ham loaf in the oven for an hour and dinner will be served. A nice quick and easy meal for us, which I love!

Other veggies optional

How to Make Ranch Macaroni Salad: 

1. Cook up the pasta like directed on the back of the box.

2. While the pasta is cooking, I cut up my tomatoes and cucumbers.

3. Then I took the mayonnaise and mixed with the packet of ranch in a small bowl, and set aside.

4. Once pasta is cooked and cooled off, add the veggies, cheese, and mayo mix and stir well.

5. Then refrigerate and serve when you are ready!

Note: Now after it sits for awhile you might have to add a little more mayo and mix in, as the pasta might soak it up.

    This looks delicious! Listed in the ingredients is 1/4 cup of milk, but doesn’t say where to add it. Do you add it to the ranch/mayo mixture? Thanks!
