Easy Chicken Pasta Salad

My friend sent this to me. It looks yummy!

Ingredients:

½ bag Rotini pasta (the tricolor add more color)

½ lb cooked chicken (boil is easy) cubed

½ cucumber cubed

½ can olives sliced

½-1 cup carrots diced

½ cup peas

½-1 cup cubed cheese (what ever cheese you have in the fridge)

Ranch Dressing

Cook, noodles as directed. Put chicken pieces in boiling water until no longer pink. While those are cooking, chop up all your other ingredients (leave out Ranch) and put in a large bowl. Once pasta is done, rinse with cold water until cool, add to bowl. Once chicken has cooled off enough to cube add it to the bowl. Now add enough Ranch dressing to spread through entire bowl. Stir. Put in refrigerator until ready to eat.

Makes 3-4 servings.
