Chicken Pasta Salad

1 lb box bowtie pasta, cook in salted boiling water. When cooked, rinse in cold water & drain.

While pasta is cooking, prepare following:

1 1/2-2 cups red grapes, cut in half

8 oz can pineapple tidbits, drained

12 oz can cashew, bits & pieces

2 stalks celery, diced small

3 large cans chunk white chicken, drained

*optional: handful chopped green onions

Dressing: Mix in separate bowl until well combined

1 cup light mayo

3/4 bottle Kraft coleslaw dressing

Mix all ingredients in large bowl. I usually add some onion salt to taste. Refrigerate several hours or overnight before serving.

This is always a hit at any party, and we actually get requests for it several times a year.
