Steps:

  • 1. Prepare pasta noodles al dente according to package directions.
  • 2. Strain and cool.
  • 3. In a separate bowl, mix the ranch dressing envelope according to the package directions adding mayo & buttermilk.
  • 4. I thin it out with a couple additional tablespoons of buttermilk or milk if needed.
  • 5. Add cubed cheese, cucumber, tomato halves, and optional ham to the pasta.
  • 6. Add dressing.
  • 7. Combine well.
  • 8. Refrigerate for an hour or more. If the noodles soak up most of the dressing, you may add a bit of milk to loosen it up or just a squirt or two of bottled dressing.

1 pkg Hidden Valley Ranch Buttermilk Ranch dressing mix (envelope)
1 1/2 c Colby jack cheese, diced (or any block cheese)
1 large cucumber, peeled
1 c grape tomatoes, halved
1 c ham, diced (optional)
