Dill Pickle Pasta Salad

Instructions

1. Cook the pasta in salted water until al dente. Drain and cool completely.
2. Cook the bacon until crisp, drain and chop into bite-size pieces.
3. Whisk mayonnaise, ranch seasoning and enough pickle juice to make a creamy, pourable dressing. Season with black pepper.
4. Combine cooled pasta, chopped pickles and bacon in a large bowl. Add the dressing and toss until evenly coated.
5. Chill before serving so the flavors can blend. Stir in a little extra mayonnaise or pickle juice if the salad tightens up in the refrigerator.
