This is by far my favorite pasta salad, with it makes the perfect side dish for any picnic or it could even be a light meal on a hot summer night.

•12 strips bacon, cooked and chopped
•2 cups pasta of your choice, cooked, rinsed, and drained
•3 green/spring onions, sliced into rounds
•½ cup chopped cucumber
•½ teaspoon mustard
•2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
•½ cup mayonnaise plus more to taste
•½ teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
•Freshly ground black pepper

In a large bowl combine the bacon, pasta, cucumber and green onions. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, salt & pepper. Pour the dressing over the salad and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve. Store covered in the refrigerator, for up to 3 days.
