Spinach Chicken Pasta Salad

Similar to the last entry, I'm adding this because another aunt of ours always seems to have delicious recipes. This one is from our Aunt Helicopter.

Spinach Chicken Pasta Salad (from Aunt Helicopter)

16 oz bow tie pasta, cooked
2 c cooked, chopped chicken

Marinade:

1 c oil
2/3 c white wine vinegar
1/2 tsp pepper
2/3 c teriyaki sauce
6 Tbsp sugar

Pour marinade over pasta and chicken. Mix well. Let it marinade overnight. Stir once, and just before serving add:

1 bag fresh spinach, torn in pieces
1 small can mandarin oranges
1/4 c toasted sesame seeds
16 oz pkg craisins
1 bunch green onions, chopped
6 oz honey roasted peanuts

(And I think peppers would go great in this!)

  1. I'm just not sure using people's real names is a good idea. Do you think I should use real names?
