Recipe
1. Fill a medium pot with cold water and place over high heat
2. Once the water is boiling place all dry ingredients in the pot
3. Cook time for ingredients is based on cooking time on the pasta box
4. While the dry ingredients are cooking place frozen peas in the microwave and thaw them. After they are thawed drain and put on the side to be used later.
5. Cut the celery into small bite size and put on the side to be used later
6. After pasta mix is cooked drained, place in a bowl.
7. Combine the peas, pasta mix, celery and ranch dressing, and mix well. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
8. Place pasta salad in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour to chill

Note: After pasta has sat in the refrigerator for some time, it soaks up the dressing, so you may want to add more dressing when you take it out before serving...be careful not to put too much dressing in.
