For you Diane

Diane wanted me to post my salad recipe from Carmen's babyshower. It is so easy to make and very yummy.

I buy a box of the Suddenly Pasta Salad-Chipotle Ranch type, and make up the box according to its directions.

Then I stir in whatever I have on hand into the finished salad:
cubed chicken
cubed or shredded Cheddar cheese
chopped fresh tomato
chopped green onions
chopped avocado
frozen corn (add the last 3 minutes of cooking the pasta)
can of black beans
top with tortilla chips

It tastes good with all of these stir ins or only one or two of them.
