Cooking Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add small pasta noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold water.
- While the pasta cooks, thaw frozen peas in warm water for about 5 minutes. Cook thick-cut bacon in a skillet over medium heat for 6-8 minutes until crispy, then crumble. Grate Parmesan cheese.
- Whisk together mayonnaise, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, and granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Add salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper to taste.
- In a large bowl, combine cooled pasta, thawed peas, crumbled bacon, and grated Parmesan. Toss gently until evenly mixed.
- Pour dressing over pasta salad and stir to coat evenly. Cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours before serving.

Notes
Chill for the best flavor, and taste to avoid over-salting due to salty ingredients like bacon and parmesan. Customize ingredients to suit your taste preferences.
