Chicken Pasta Salad

Thank you to Albertsons for sponsoring today’s Chicken Pasta Salad post! AD #MySignatureSummer

Summery Chicken Pasta Salad is full of colorful fruits and vegetables; mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, grapes, celery, and onions. It’s tossed in a tangy and creamy dressing that makes all the flavors shine, then is topped with crunchy cashews! Light main dishes salads like Chicken Pasta Salad are exactly the kind of recipes you’ll go back to over and over all summer long. It can be made ahead which leaves plenty of time leftover to enjoy your summer days!

If you are looking for an easy, yet incredibly scrumptious go to salad this summer look no further than Chicken Pasta Salad! Take it to barbecues, picnics, or serve it for a simple and light dinner! I have a feeling this salad is going to show up on your menus all season long!

Isn’t summer the best season of the year? I wish it could last forever!

Of course I love the warm weather, the long days, and the fact that I don’t have to worry about algebra or piano lessons! It’s so nice to finally be able to spend our evenings doing whatever wewant instead of working on science fair projects!

During the summer we squeeze as much as possible into every single day. My boys all work on the farm until quite late and then we play after that! By time we finally convince ourselves to wrap it up and call it a day it’s way too late.

My boys are always starving at the end of a long summer day and I’m usually not in the mood to start making dinner. That’s why we thrive on quick and easy meals all summer long!

Having a big bowl of Chicken Pasta Salad in the fridge when we finally get ready for dinner is a lifesaver! It’s delicious served all by itself, or it’s pretty on top of a lettuce leaf!

Being able to throw it together it ahead of time makes it a perfect option for late nights. Because it’s portable it’s just right for packing up and taking to the cabin, the lake, or on picnics too!

Chicken Pasta Salad has so many fresh flavors packed in it! I used to turn my nose up at salads that had both fruits and veggies in them. You guys, there is something magical about combining juicy and sweet Signature Kitchens Pineapple, Signature Kitchens Mandarin Oranges, and fresh grapes with crunchy celery and flavorful onions! You just have to try it! It’s heavenly!

Oh and by the way I absolutely love getting my fresh produce from Albertsons! It’s kind of hard to find good produce in Eastern Idaho and they have the BEST fresh fruits and veggies.
