rainbow rotini chicken salad

I have made this pasta recipe for many years. Unfortunately, I can't recall what restaurant I had the pleasure of having a salad just like this one, but I do remember going home and replicating it as best as I could. That was many years ago and I continue to consider this one of my favorite summer salads...actually - anytime of the year salad. It's a simple pasta salad, one that could easily be changed to one's liking.  Consider adding any combination of the following ingredients: chopped boiled eggs; tomatoes; green, red or yellow peppers; sweet or dill peppers; shredded cheese of choice...the possibilities are endless.  Try this salad soon and post how you made it.
