PASTA SALAD HELEAUXS

Pasta Salad Recipes from Heleaux’s Grocery.

12 oz Vegetable Rotini,

6 oz Bag Tyson Cooked Chicken Strips,

1 Small Red Apple (Diced),

1 Medium Fresh Pear (diced),

1 Peeled Diced Cucumber,

1 Diced Fresh Tomato and…..

Recipe # 1- 8 oz Italian Dressing,

Shredded Mozzarella Cheese

Recipe # 2- 8 oz 1000 Island Dressing,

Crumbled Feta Cheese

Cook Rotini according to package instructions, rinse, drain and set aside.
Add the dressing (depending on which recipe you choose) then dice the apple, pear, cucumber and tomato. It is important to stir often to coat the apple and pear so that it does not turn brown. Add the cooked diced chicken, shredded Cheese and stir once more. I find it is best if refrigerated for at least one hour before serving. This can be made ahead and holds up well in the refrigerator for up to 3 Days. Why not try them both!
