Description

When you have everything cut and diced add in with noodles in a big bowl and mix well,
Add your Garlic, Maybe even a little pepper with it.
Add your Bacon bits and yellow cheese and Itallian dressing and mix well together.

When mixing is done top off with Parmasian cheese( as a layer for topping)..sprinkle a little bit more bacon bits to give some colour on top and leave( mix no more).

Set in frig to cool for a hour or 2 ( or to what you feel is cool enough, I usually make it 2 hours before serving so its nice and cold).

That sounds good!

I am going to make that! Have 2 dumb questions for ya though...your yellow cheese; is that cheddar (we call it orange...LOL) and you have a jar of Italian dressing (how much is in a jar) we have bottles....LOL.

Ok, I am not having a blonde moment...this is for real!! Smiling

I make this with the colored

I make this with the colored vegetable spiral noodles and I also add the very tips of broccoli florets and a little diced celery for some crunch.

sounds great

Thanks for the idea!

You can use any kind of cheese, Sometimes I even buy the mexican 3 cheese and use that, and as far as the dressing goes.. it depends on your taste, pour in a little at a time til you think it is just right, I like alot of dressing myself.. I use almost a whole bottle.
Good stuff Smiling
