Along the pasta salad line, if you're looking for a variation, try this:
1 lb b/s chicken breast
1 pkg shells or rotelle or whatever pasta you like
chopped onion, to taste
chopped red pepper, to taste
chopped cucumber, to taste
halved grape tomatoes, to taste
chopped celery, to taste
chopped carrots, to taste
8 Tbsp Light Done Right Classic Ceasar (3 Cheese Ranch would be good too)
Sprinkle chicken with salt, pepper, and oregano. Grill until done. Slice across the grain thinly. Cook pasta until al dente, then rinse under cold water until cool. Toss, chicken, pasta, veggies, and dressing in a giant lidded tupperware bowl (just put the cover on and shake it up). Just before serving, sprinkle with 1 tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese. This does have 8 pts per serving, but it is a whole meal. It's a great summer supper when you can't stand the thought of lighting a burner in the kitchen.
