Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 lb of boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 lb box of penne rigate or other similar pasta
1 small bunch of Romaine lettuce, washed and torn into small pieces
1 package of croutons (Caesar or seasoned), crushed into small pieces
1 small bottle of Cardini's Caesar dressing
black pepper
grated Parmesan cheese
Directions:
Directions:
Saute or grill chicken breasts using a little olive oil. Cut into cubes or bite-sized pieces and set aside.

While cooking the chicken boil water in a pot large enough for the pasta and cook past until it is cooked to desired tenderness. When pasta has finished cooking, drain and rinse well with cold water. Be sure to drain well and place in a large bowl.

Add cooked chicken, Romaine lettuce, and croutons. Pour dressing over ingredients and stir or toss to coat, making sure to coat well. (Adding about half the dressing at first and then adding more as desired will work better for those who do not like a lot of dressing.) Once the dressing has been distributed well, add black pepper and Parmesan cheese as desired and mix again.

Serve immediately. Any leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator, but they may require a little more dressing to remoisten the salad.

*This can be made without the chicken and just used as a side dish. I like to make it and take it for lunch.
