Bacon Ranch Macaroni Salad

4 pieces of bacon cooked until crisp and broken into bits
2 cups of dry seashell pasta cooked until al dente, drained and cooled
1/4 cup frozen thawed peas
1 carrot shredded
1 green onion chopped
1/2 cup shredded cheese
1 small tomato diced
1 cup mayo
2T. dry hidden ranch seasoning...if too strong just add more mayo to offset the taste and make it smoother to palate

1. In a small bowl mix ranch and mayo set aside
2. Mix pasta, bacon , peas. carrot, green onion, cheese and diced tomatoes together.
3. Mix in ranch mayo. Refridgerate for at least a half hour to overnight and let flavors meld.
4. If pasta gets to stiff just add some more mayo, pasta is like a sponge and will soak up anything with moisture.
