Instructions 

  • Cook the pasta in a large pot of salted boiling water following the directions on the box. Rinse and drain the pasta well. Pour the pasta into a large mixing bowl.
  • Add the diced tomatoes, sliced green onions and chopped bacon to the bowl. Toss well.
  • Roughly chop the hard boiled eggs and add them to the bowl. Gently mix to combine with the other ingredients.
  • In a small bowl mix the dressing ingredients well.
  • Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients in the bowl and toss well to coat all of the pasta salad ingredients with the dressing.
  • Fold the drained canned peas into the pasta salad just until combined.
  • Slice a few extra hard boiled eggs in half and arrange on top of the creamy pea pasta salad before serving, if desired.
  • Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve.
  • Makes about 8 to 10 servings.

Recipe Expert Tips

  • I used a combination of small fresh red tomatoes and yellow cherry tomatoes from my garden. You can use 1 or 2 large red tomatoes if that that is what you have.
