CHICKEN GARDEN PASTA SALAD



Chicken Garden Pasta Salad image

Our A/C went on the Fritz, So decided to make cold pasta salads until it was fixed. I came up with this recipe. Chicken, asparagus, Zucchini, and pasta. I made up Uncle Dan's Dressing from a dry packet mix, but it can be made with any ranch dressing you like. You also may use rotisserie chicken if you prefer. Hubby loved it!...
