Monday’s Money Saving Recipe: Dressed Up Boxed Pasta Salad

I struck gold with this concoction.  Hubs LOVED it!

Ingredients:

1 box Suddenly Salad Original Pasta Salad prepared according to package
1/2 pound bacon cooked
1/2 bag Tyson Frozen Grilled and Ready Chicken Strips heated

Mix all three things together and chill.  It’s best if prepare it and let it chill all day or overnight – it really brings out the flavor of the bacon.

If I had had some black olives I would’ve tossed those in there too.

What I love most about this recipe is that by adding the chicken and bacon, it’s a one dish dinner – and even Hubs agreed!  He typically likes a variety of things on his plate but agreed that this was a very filling dinner!
