Caesar Pasta Salad

FOR THE PASTA SALAD:

• 8 oz. Organic uncooked pasta, such as rotini or penne
• 2 hearts of organic Romaine
• Shredded rotisserie chicken or chopped chicken breasts (optional I did mine without)
• Organic Caesar Croutons (optional)
• Parmesan cheese, for serving
• Whole black olives
• Organic Caesar dressing (I used half an 8 oz bottle)

MAKE THE PASTA SALAD:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook until al dente, about 10 minutes. Drain the pasta and transfer it to a large serving bowl.
• Cut the Romaine hearts into 1-inch pieces then add them and your protein of choice to the bowl with the pasta.
• Add the prepared dressing and toss to combine. Add the croutons (optional) and garnish with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately or refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve.
