easy deli style pasta salad recipe

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 box of tricolor pasta (12 or 16 oz box – both work fine – cooked, drained and cooled)
  • 1 small onion (see prep notes below)
  • 3 roma tomatoes – diced
  • 1 english cucumber – deseeded and diced
  • 1 cup of sliced black olives
  • 1 cup of freshly grated parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup of italian dressing (we love Olive Garden)
  • 3 cups of chicken breast (cubed (rotisserie or leftovers are perfect for this!))

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, mix together all of the ingredient – saving the italian dressing for last.
  2. Toss in as much dressing as you need to lightly coat the entire salad mixture.
  3. Once mixed, put into a large bowl and seal, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving (over night is even better!)
