Great tasting salad. The flavour combination worked well. I sprinkled the chicken breasts lightly with Tex-Mex seasoning before browning in roasted garlic olive oil. If short on time I think ranch dressing would work well with this salad.

Very simple and easy to prepare. Had a nice mild flavor accentuated by cumin and cilantro. A cool and refreshing choice that would be good for picnics as well as pot-lucks and warm-weather days!

This is a very good salad. I omited the bell pepper due to stomach sensitivity & it was still very flavorful. I also decreased the fat content by using light sour cream & light best foods mayonaise to create the dressing. I'm sure you'd never notice the difference.

Delish! I halved the recipe since it's just me and the BF and omitted the lettuce because I forgot about it! I used some shredded rotisserie chicken from earlier in the week, and it was wonderful! It was super-filling! Thanks for a great minimal-cooking-needed summer-time recipe!

Great recipe that I changed up a bit. I did not use the zucchini, green pepper, lettuce, or cheddar cheese. I added black beans. The dressing is very tasty. The recipe makes a lot and would be great for a pot luck.

We really liked this. I did use different veggies because I used what we had on hand. I used frozen corn and broccoli florets, which I blanched in the pasta water for the last minute or two of cooking. I also didn't used the lettuce or green chilies. We like the dressing and enjoyed the change of pace from a regular pasta salad. I did double the dressing because I think it just would have been dry, but that may be because of my choice of veggies. Thanks for a recipe that we will use again. We have made this several times now and I just love it.

We really enjoyed this recipe although we omitted the dairy and chicken to make it vegan! Simply delicious and much healthier!

This was just okay. If I ever made it again, I would skip the zucchini. It really didn't belong in there.

Yum. I used Morningstar Veggie Chicken strips to make this salad a great one course vegetarian meal. I didn't have any zucchini or celery. I only added 1/2 cup of mayo and used light sour cream.

I probably wouldn't want to eat this as a main, but as a side salad or at a bbq it's great. A nice take on more traditional pasta salads, too!! Thanks for posting ('^-^')

I for one loved the flavours in this recipe and it's fresh, light taste, however my boyfriend wasn't as keen - he's not a big fan of cold pasta dishes. I thought this recipe takes quite a long time to prepare for, but once it's chilled and ready-to-eat, it's absolutely gorgeous. I would make this again, but maybe for a party or something so other people can appreciate this recipe.

Delicious pasta salad. I made it once as directed and once with a 1/2 can of chopped jalepenos instead of the green chiles. This made a bit hotter, but still fabulous.

Great! I omitted the chicken and added a can of black beans. Also, had no celery or green pepper and used a fresh jalapeno. I wanted more crunch so next time I'll add the celery and more bell pepper. DH added black olives to his. YUM!

What I love about this recipe is that you can totally make it your own by adding/omitting veggies. I did not use corn, green onion, zucchini or celery, and I added some tomato. It was delicious, I really like the dressing, however I did add more cumin and chili pepper than directed. This is refreshing, and next time I think I will make sure to use the corn and maybe add a can of black beans. Thank you!

Yummy! This is easy to make, although I'm not a quick chopper-upper so that slows me down. I left out the green pepper, cheese (I simply forgot to add the cheese - there's already so much good stuff going on), lettuce & cilantro. I added a can of kidney beans. The dressing tastes great.

I am rating this mainly for the dressing which is very tasty-might be a bit sweet for me so next time I will cut way back on the sugar. In addition to the veggies listed I also included carrots, cucumber, tomato, avocado, and baby spinach. I cooked my chicken in salsa so that gave the salad an additional spice which I really liked. Thank you for a great recipe!

This IS wonderful! I used light olive oil mayo and light sour cream and added black olives, otherwise, followed it as written. We both REALLY loved it. My husband ate almost the whole dish for dinner. I think it would be just as good with less pasta and more lettuce or more lettuce and less pasta, whatever suits your taste or perhaps your diet. I can't wait to share this recipe!
