Making Corn Pasta Salad with Bacon and Creamy Pesto Dressing is simple if you follow these steps:

1. Cook the Pasta: Boil a pot of salted water and cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool.
2. Cook the Bacon: In a skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels to absorb excess grease.
3. Prepare the Vegetables: While the bacon cooks, chop the cherry tomatoes, red onion, and fresh basil.
4. Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooled pasta, crispy bacon, sweet corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and chopped basil.
5. Add Dressing: Pour the creamy pesto sauce over the salad and toss gently until well coated.
6. Season: Taste the salad and add salt and pepper if needed, adjusting to your personal preference.
7. Chill: Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving.

This easy process makes it effortless to create a delicious and flavorful salad!
