This easy ranch pasta is a fresh, flavorful, and effortlessly cool dish for summer. Tossed with crisp veggies, gluten-free pasta, and our No-dairy Ranch Dressing made with avocado oil, it’s the kind of simple side that always pleases at potlucks and picnics.
Make a double batch for a backyard BBQ, add a protein like chicken or bacon, or serve it alongside pulled pork for a breezy dinner any time of year. Ran out of ranch? Sub in our equally creamy, dreamy Caesar or lighten things up with a bold vinaigrette (we suggest Italian or Greek for an herby punch).
