Instructions

Cook the pasta in salted boiling water until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water.
Cook the bacon until crispy, then crumble.
Prep the ingredients by dicing the turkey, halving the tomatoes, shredding the lettuce, and cubing the cheese.
Make the dressing by whisking together mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and parsley.
Combine everything in a large bowl, tossing the pasta, turkey, bacon, tomatoes, lettuce, and cheese together.
Pour the dressing over and mix gently to coat.
Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.

Notes

Add the lettuce right before serving to keep it fresh and crisp.
For extra crunch, add chopped cucumbers or bell peppers.
If the pasta absorbs too much dressing, stir in a tablespoon of extra mayo before serving.
