I’ve been holding onto summer. It has been warm and still very much feels like summer! Until today! The high is only 68. Fall is upon us! I’ve just got to make one last pasta salad!

  • 8 oz Rotini

  • Cook chicken breasts and dice them. Or dice them and cook them (I like this way...seems they cook faster and you know they've cooked through without having to cut into them!).

  • Boil or microwave corn.

    I tried this and it’s definitely a keeper. Thank you! I roasted 2 green peppers (because I love them so much) and added some kidney beans for filler and fiber. Love your site!!
