Asparagus Pasta Salad
Bountiful Harvest Cookbook


I got this recipe from my sister-in-law while visiting her in Texas. I usually prepare this salad in the summer as a light evening meal for my family or as an extra-special lunch for friends.

SERVINGS: 12
CATEGORY: Salads
METHOD:
TIME: Prep: 10 min. + chilling Cook: 10 min.

Ingredients:
1 pound fresh asparagus, cut into 1-1/2-inch pieces
1 package (16 ounces) tricolor spiral pasta, cooked and drained
1 cup diced cooked chicken
1 cup diced fully cooked ham
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup sliced ripe olives
1-1/2 cups zesty Italian dressing
1-1/2 teaspoons dill weed

Place asparagus in a large saucepan with enough water to cover; cook until crisp-tender. Drain and cool. In a large bowl, combine asparagus with the remaining ingredients; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 3-4 hours or overnight. Yield: 12 servings.
