Here is a great chicken pasta recipe that we had in Knotts yesterday. YUM It makes enough for an army but the recipe can easily be reduced.
Pasta Salad
1 pkg. bow-tie pasta (12 oz.)
1 pkg. spiral pasta (12 oz.)
1 20 oz. can pineapple tidbits
2 cans sliced water chestnuts - chopped
2 c. chopped celery
4 green onions, chopped
1 cup red grapes, sliced
1 can cashews
1 pkg. or craisins
1 lg. can mandarin oranges (I used two small cans)
6 large chicken breasts, cooked and cubed. (I used 3 cans Costco chicken)
Dressing:
1 bottle Kraft coleslaw dressing mixed with
1 cup mayonnaise.
Cook the pasta, drain. Drain all of the canned items. Mix together in a giant Tupperware bowl with dressing. Chill, Serve.

ReplyDeleteHi Kathy, I stumbled across your blog when I was looking for Kim Peterson's website. What fun to run into an old neighbor unexpectedly! I tried your pasta salad recipe when I need something quick, easy, and that made a TON and it was just perfect!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
