The Absolute Best Chicken Salad, Sweet, Tangy and Delicious!

Everybody loves pasta salad! But, most people use tuna in their salad, right? Not everybody likes tuna! So, I have come up with this delectable pasta salad that uses chicken instead of tuna and everyone I know has asked for the recipe! Try it for your self you are sure to fall in love with it too!

Chicken Pasta Salad

1 lb. box rotini pasta (you can of course use any kind, but I find that the rotini holds the flavor of the sauce better)

1 large can of chicken (you'll find this in the grocery store near the tuna or prepacked meats)

1 large tomato (chopped)

6 sweet gherkin pickles (sliced)

approx. 2 tablespoons of green olives with pimentos (chopped)

2 1/2 c. Miracle Whip Salad Dressing

3 Tablespoons sweet pickle relish

Salt & Pepper

Place your pasta in a large pot to boil (follow instructions on the box for boiling). Then prepare your sauce.

Drain the can of chicken, then dump into a large mixing bowl and use a fork to break apart the chunks, chop up the tomato and olives, then slice the pickles and place them all into the mixing bowl, add miracle whip and relish, then mix it all together. Drain pasta and run cold water over it to cool quickly, add to the bowl and mix. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve cold!

This recipe provides plenty of salad for a party of 40 or less and last's approx. 3 days in the refrigerator. I have never made this recipe and not had someone ask for the recipe! Here's to your party success, may you have a wonderful time!
