Chicken Pasta Salad Recipe


My dad grows incredibly delicious tomatoes and red peppers. This year's crop was especially abundant, so I created this salad combination to take advantage of the bounty. My husband gave this recipe a definite "thumbs up".

This recipe is:

Quick



    8-10 Servings
    Prep: 15 min. + chilling


Ingredients

    1 package (16 ounces) bow tie or spiral pasta, cooked and drained
    3 cups cubed cooked chicken
    2 tablespoons Crisco® Olive Oil
    1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
    1 cup mayonnaise
    1/2 cup Caesar or Parmesan salad dressing
    1 tablespoon honey mustard or other prepared mustard
    2 to 3 teaspoons curry powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    1 sweet red pepper, chopped
    1 large tomato, chopped
    1 cup shredded carrot


Directions

    In a large bowl, toss the pasta, chicken, oil and garlic powder. Cover and chill. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, salad dressing, mustard, curry powder, salt and pepper; cover and chill. Just before serving, add the red pepper, tomato, carrot and dressing to pasta mixture; gently toss to coat. Yield: 8-10 servings.
