CHOPPED SALAD (SOON TO BE FAMOUS)

Steps:

• Cook pasta per package instructions.
• After draining pasta in colander, rinse the pasta in cold water to cool off. Once drained and cooled, sprinkle with Season Salt, to taste. (I use Tastefully Simple but I am sure other brands would work as well).
• Fry bacon on stovetop. Once crisp, pat to remove excess oil and crumble.
• If using chicken, boil chicken to cook. Once cooked through, chop into small pieces. Please note: I do not often use chicken but, when I do I use a small breast or 1/2 of a breast.
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and toss.
• Although I do not use salad dressing, my family uses a light vinigrette (their current favorite is sun-dried tomato) as a dressing with the salad.
• Also, ingredients can be removed or their amounts adjusted to meet the tastes of people eating the salad although the basic ingredients remain the same.
