This is a super easy but wonderfully tasty salad recipe I picked up years ago which has become a summer tradition with my family! The ingredients and proportions are adjustable to personal preference.
Ingredients:
1/2 pound uncooked pasta of your choice
1 cup frozen corn kernels, thawed
1 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup diced celery
1/4 cup minced onion
1/2 cup sliced green olives
1/2 cup diced green bell pepper
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup italian-style salad dressing
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 (10 ounce) cans chunk chicken, drained
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain and pour pasta into a large dish.
2. Stir in the corn, mushrooms, celery, onions, olives, bell pepper and cheese.
3. In a separate bowl, whisk together the salad dressing and mayonnaise, then pour this mixture over the salad and toss again, to coat. Add flaked chicken and toss gently a final time.
