Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1# box of pasta..I get radiatore pasta from Wal-Mart. I think it holds the dressing the best.
1 large bottle of Wishbone Italian Salad Dressing..I believe Wishbone has the best flavor for this salad.
Any type of fresh vegetables you prefer.....I prefer broccoli, cauliflower, cucumber, grape/cherry tomatoes.
1 bag of already cooked chicken...Kroger brand is better than name brand, plus it is cheaper. It is in the frozen meats.
Directions:
Directions:
Cook pasta as directed. Drain, and rinse with cold water to cool it. Place in a large bowl, make sure it is big enough to mix everything together. Cut up enough vegetables for your salad, and place in bowl with your pasta. Don't put too many. They will overpower the noodles. Cut up the chicken into bite size pieces, and place into your bowl. Add dressing to bowl, and mix well. Refrigerate to cool before serving.

This salad is best when made the day of your event. If you are going to have a large crowd, then double the recipe. I always have to make a double recipe whenever I take it anywhere. If I show up without this pasta salad....they make me leave.
