Grilled Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Chicken, Rice, Side Dishes, Salads

 Ingredients List

  • 3 cups grilled chicken, cut into bite-size pieces (we just used this leftover chicken, but you could also use rotisserie chicken)
  • 6 oz (about 1/2 box) penne pasta, cooked and cooled*
  • 4 cups Romaine lettuce, cut into small pieces
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan cheese (we used pre-shredded cheese that you buy in a bag)
  • 1 bottle of your favorite Caesar salad dressing (I love this Organic Litehouse dressing- not an advertisement, just my honest opinion)

 Directions

Mix together all ingredients EXCEPT for the dressing. Pour desired amount of dressing on top (we used about half a bottle) and serve immediately (the salad starts to go soggy if you pour the dressing on ahead of time).

*My husband was completely weirded out by pasta in his salad. I think it's delicious, but he chose to pick all the pasta out of his and said it was good without it. :) To each their own!
