Autumn Pasta Salad
What You’ll Need
1 (8-ounce) package elbow macaroni
1 cup chopped cooked kosher rotisserie chicken
1 cup chopped apples
1 cup chopped pears
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped candied walnuts
1 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon salt
What to Do
In a medium pot of boiling salted water, cook pasta to desired doneness; drain well and cool. (Rinse with cold water to cool quickly; drain well.)
In a large bowl, combine cooled pasta, the chicken, apples, pears, cranberries, celery, and candied walnuts; mix well.
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, maple syrup, vinegar, and salt; blend well. Pour mayonnaise mixture over pasta mixture; toss lightly then serve immediately.
Mr.Food Test Kitchen Tip!
If you’re not serving this salad immediately, you may want to wait to add the pears and walnuts just before serving, so they stay nice ‘n’ crunchy. You can also add an additional 1/4 cup mayonnaise to moisten the salad just before serving.
