{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Chicken-Spinach Pasta Salad



Chicken-Spinach Pasta Salad
Taste of Home's Holiday & Celebrations Cookbook

 

Hot summer nights call for cool salads such as this. I created the recipe by accident one day when tossing together whatever ingredients I had on hand.

SERVINGS: 6-8
CATEGORY: Salads
METHOD:
TIME: Prep/Total Time: 20 min.

Ingredients:
1-3/4 cups uncooked small pasta shells
4 cups baby spinach
2-1/2 cups julienned cooked chicken
1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese
1/4 cup pine nuts
DRESSING:
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon white balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon minced chives
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon dried basil
Dash each garlic powder and cayenne pepper

Directions:
Cook pasta according to package directions; rinse in cold water and drain well. In a large bowl, gently toss the pasta, spinach, chicken, blue cheese and pine nuts. In a small bowl, whisk the dressing ingredients. Drizzle over salad and toss to coat. Serve immediately. Yield: 6-8 servings.
