How to Make Colorful Party Pasta Salad

- While pasta cooks, finely dice the chicken/ham, red bell pepper, cucumber, and red onion. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked and cooled pasta, diced chicken/ham, bell pepper, tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, and red onion.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the Italian dressing, mayonnaise, red wine vinegar, oregano, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the pasta mixture and toss gently to coat.
- Stir in the crispy bacon bits (if using).
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to 24 hours, to allow flavors to meld.
