GARLIC RANCH PASTA (WW)



Garlic Ranch Pasta (Ww) image

This is written as a Weight Watchers recipe but is easily adaptable to full fat ingredients and tastes good either way! It's not meant to be a complicated, balanced meal but a quick, tasty supper dish that goes well with just about anything. I like the flavour of garlic to be quite strong so feel free to use less if you do not.

RANCH PASTA



Ranch Pasta image

I came up with this ranch pasta after making recipes for a bridal shower. It was party day and I needed to take some shortcuts! Everyone loves the simple Parmesan ranch white sauce, and it's easy to throw in veggies you have on hand. -Merry Graham, Newhall, California

CREAMY RANCH PASTA SALAD



Creamy Ranch Pasta Salad image

Maybe you bought some celery for snacking, or maybe you're cooking with it. Either way, don't toss those tender celery leaves. Instead, reserve them and make this creamy pasta salad. Ranch dressing, carrots and celery are natural dance partners-and that's why we combined them in a singularly tasty salad. It starts with a simple homemade dressing, which beats store-bought every day.

RANCH DRESSING PASTA



Ranch Dressing Pasta image

This is a good alternative to your regular pasta. I have used hidden valley ranch brand and others, all were great. I do like the fiesta ranch the best in this recipe. This is a recipe that comes together quickly. You could add warm cooked chicken chunks to this recipe for protein in the meal.
