BLT Pasta Salad Recipe

There is almost no salad I can think of that bacon does not taste good in, and this BLT Pasta Salad Recipe is no exception.  The bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, and pasta all blend well together to make a good tasting cold salad. The Rainbow Rotini adds a little color and makes it a great salad for graduation parties, pot luck or any other type so social get together. This is a very simple recipe so I left out the prep photos because they were not needed. If you have any questions send me an email or post in the comments area.
