Rae s Italian BS Pasta Salad

1 (12 ounce) package tri-colored spiral pasta

1 pound bacon

⅓ cup Italian-style dressing

2 green onions, chopped

1 (16 ounce) bottle creamy Italian-style salad dressing

3 Roma (plum) tomatoes, diced

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spiral pasta in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until cooked through but firm to the bite, 12 minutes; drain.

Fry bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crisp, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain bacon on paper towels and crumble. Reserve about 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.

Wilt spinach in the skillet with reserved bacon grease over medium heat, 2 to 3 minutes.

Toss cooked pasta with 1/3 cup Italian-style dressing in a large bowl; stir bacon, spinach, and green onions into coated pasta.

Stir creamy Italian-style dressing, tomatoes, and olives into pasta mixture. Chill in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
