I love summer its the time for parties, picnics and BBQ’s. I love spending time with family and friends and sharing delicious food. Usually I am making all the sweets but today I have an easy and delicious meal that you can have done in less than 30 minuets. I was elated when an email from Johnsonville® landed in my mail box and I am excited to partner with them to bring you information about their latest product. I created this recipe for Easy BBQ Ranch Pasta Salad with Johnsonville® Chicken Kabobs.
This pasta salad is so good it is filled with bacon and delicious ranch flavoring. A winning combination for sure.
What is really great and makes this meal so easy and delicious are the Johnsonville Chicken Kabobs. They are pre-seasoned and packaged for a perfect meal. I used Johnsonville® Sweet BBQ All Natural Chicken Breast Kabobs. there are four flavors and we have tried them all and they are all delicious. I love that they are soooo easy to prepare and go perfectly with this BBQ Ranch Pasta Salad.
The tangy BBQ Ranch Pasta Salad goes so well with the Johnsonville® Sweet BBQ All Natural Chicken Breast Kabobs. We loved this meal so much we had it two weeks in a row.
