Curried Chicken Pasta Salad image

I got this recipe from The Pioneer Woman website. I use craisins in lieu of raisins, celery seed instead of celery ribs, and skinless boneless grilled chicken (Creating the broth with bouillon). http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/08/curried-chicken-pasta-salad/

This salad is a great way to use up leftover curry. I had some leftover chicken tikka masala and it was perfect in this salad.

I love the vibrant colors in this salad! The red bell pepper, green onions, and parsley add a beautiful contrast to the yellow curry sauce. It's a feast for the eyes as well as the taste buds.
