Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups rotini pasta, uncooked
2 cups boneless skinless chicken breasts, cooked, cut into 1/2 inch cubes or 2 cups cooked shrimp, de-tailed
1/2 lb colby cheese, cut into 1/2 inch cubes
1 (12 oz) bag frozen peas, thawed or 2 cups fresh broccoli or 1 cup diced green bell pepper
1 (8 oz) bag pecan halves, unsalted
1 cup grapes, halved
1 cup mayonnaise
1 (1 oz) packet lipton recipe secrets savory herb with garlic soup mix

Directions:

Cook pasta rinse well, and chill.
In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise and Lipton Recipe Secrets until well blended.
Cover, let stand in refrigerator to combine flavor, while you prepare remaining ingredients.
In a large bowl, combine remaining ingredients (hold out a few pecans and grapes for garnish). Add pasta and mayonnaise mixture, toss until well coated.
Place in serving bowl.
Top with remaining grapes and pecans.
IF substituting the fresh broccoli, eat or throw about the salad after 2 days. the broccoli tastes funny after that. (not that we often HAVE leftovers!) We haven't tried the bell pepper option yet, due to an allergy, but friends assure me it's very good.
