I love dried cherries and pasta salad. This recipe combines them both. I think it is yummy. Ingredients:
3 cups uncooked bow tie pasta |
2 cups diced cooked chicken breasts |
1/2 cup sliced celery |
1 (3 1/2 ounce) package sweetened dried cherries |
1/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted |
3 tablespoons white wine vinegar |
3 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard |
1/2 teaspoon celery salt |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup milk |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons poppy seeds |
Directions:
1. Prepare pasta according to package directions; drain, rinse with cold water and drain again. 2. In a large mixing bowl, add the pasta, chicken, celery, and cherries; stir to mix well. 3. In a smaller bowl, add the dressing ingredients. 4. Using a whisk, stir until well blended. 5. Pour dressing over the salad; toss gently. 6. Add almonds and fold in gently. |
