Memorial Day cookout = officially unlocked. Save this recipe for this weekend!! If you need an easy, crowd-pleasing side that takes almost no effort but tastes like you did something genius—this is it. Our trusty chef erin_funfoodie used Pat the Spatula to whip up this Buffalo Chicken Pasta Salad using all Trader Joe’s ingredients. It’s creamy, spicy, tangy, and perfect for warm weekends with good food and great people. Here’s what you’ll need: • 12 oz. Italian Macaroni (TJ’s) • 1 container Buffalo Style Chicken Dip • 1/3 cup chopped scallions • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese • 2 tbsp. Buttermilk Ranch • 1–2 tbsp. Frank’s RedHot Boil the pasta, mix everything together, and top with more blue cheese + scallions. Serve warm or cold—and maybe make a double batch, because it disappears fast. Tag the friend who always shows up to the BBQ empty-handed—this is their moment. #pasta #pastasalad #buffalochicken #memorialdayrecipe #cookoutseason #traderjoesfinds #patthespatula #easyrec...
