ROASTED CHICKEN AND BOW TIE PASTA SALAD (LOW FAT)

Roasted Chicken and Bow Tie Pasta Salad (Low Fat) image

This is such a delicious salad to take to work for a low-fat lunch, or for any time...purchase the chicken all ready cooked at your deli to save time...I always prepare a large batch of this salad, keep it in the fridge (it even tastes better the second or third day) and take it to work on a plastic container. Try not to omit the toasted nuts, as they seem to give the salad so much extra flavor...you are sure to enjoy this! (prep time includes refrigeration time).

This dish is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids love the bow-tie pasta and the roasted chicken, and they don't even notice the vegetables.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I had some leftover roasted chicken from last night and it worked perfectly in this recipe.
