Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the tri-color rotini pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process.
- Chop fresh lettuce, diced tomatoes, and other veggies. Crumble cooked bacon and chop turkey and ham into bite-sized pieces. Set aside in a large mixing bowl.
- Add cooled pasta to the mixing bowl with lettuce, tomatoes, bacon, turkey, and ham. Toss gently to combine all ingredients evenly.
- In a separate bowl, mix mayonnaise with ranch seasoning until smooth. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
- Pour creamy ranch dressing over the salad ingredients. Toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
- Cover mixing bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill.
- Transfer chilled salad to a serving platter, garnishing with additional cheese or herbs if desired.
