I halved this recipe for my family of three eaters and we still had plenty of left-overs. Everyone loved it - and they couldn't tell I'd used whole wheat noodles which is a bonus! Will definitely make again. Perfect summer meal.
From the Recipe Shoebox.
The ingredients:
1 lb. cooked, shredded chicken (I used 1 pint canned chicken)
1 lb. cooked rotini noodles (I used whole wheat bow tie)
2 heads broccoli, finely chopped (the smaller the better)
1 red pepper, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1/3 onion, chopped
1 can sliced olives
1 cup shredded cheese (optional)
1/3 - 1/2 cup ranch dressing (don't skip this--it's what holds it all together)
Dressing:
2 envelopes dry Italian dressing mix
6 Tbs. apple cider vinegar
4-1/2 Tbs. water
3/4 cup oil (you can reduce this some)
Combine cooled chicken, chopped vegetables, and olives. Set aside. Whisk together dressing ingredients and pour over vegetables and chicken. Mix together. Add ranch dressing and cheese and fold together. Refrigerate 1 hour before serving (I usually am not organized enough to do this and it still gets devoured). Serves 8 - 10.
