  1. Step 1

    If you prefer to cook the pasta in the Ninja Foodi, please see the notes section for instructions. Begin by boiling the pasta per the box instructions.

  2. Step 2

    Drain the pasta with cold water to cool the pasta down.

  3. Step 3

    While the pasta is cooking, combine the mayo, vinegar, sugar, relish, mustard, and pepper in a small bowl to make the dressing. Whisk this well.

  4. Step 4

    Once the pasta is fully cooked and drained, add the pasta to a large bowl with the onion, celery, green bell pepper, red bell pepper, and bacon (optional).

  5. Step 5

    Once in the large bowl, add the dressing mixture and mix this up well, fully coating the pasta.

  6. Step 6

    Cover and place in the fridge to chill for at least 4 hours or overnight. The longer it chills the better it is.

  7. Step 7

    Serve cold, this ends up being enough for roughly 16 people with a side dish style serving size.
