This was a delightful lunch! I used my leftovers - a cooked chicken breast - along with a canned mandarin orange and grape tomatoes. I had a half od a red pepper so I used that and cavatappi pasta. Thanks for posting! **Made for March 2008 Aussie Recipe Swap**

I always have random leftovers in my fridge. Today I had some chicken left over ziti and fresh cut veggierse from a veggie tray so this recipe was perfect. I used miracle whip and a little celery salt and it came out great. Excellent use of leftovers!
