BLT Summer Salad (it can be a meal)

Here is another healthy one from my sis-in-law, Jenny Lynne. So yummy and refreshing. Pretty easy to make and you can adjust the ingredients to make it low-fat/high fiber or not!

1 1lb. pkg cooked whole wheat/plain Rotini or Wagon Wheel pasta (Do not over cook)

8-10 pieces cooked Bacon/Turkey bacon, cut into little pieces
3 C. Romain or Ice burg Lettuce cut into 1 inch pieces
3 Roma Tomatoes, diced

While noodles cook, cut up the above ingredients. In a huge bowl mix the following:

1 C. Low-fat Mayo
4 T. Apple Cider Vinegar
2 t. Sugar
1 t. Salt
1/2 t. Pepper

Drain noodles and toss all ingredients into the huge bowl and mix until everything is coated. YUM.
I like serving this for dinner with whole wheat rolls and raspberry jam. It will easily work for two dinners or a big summer BBQ!
