Fiesta Ranch Chicken Pasta Salad

Fiesta Ranch Chicken Pasta Salad

This is my ultimate favorite pasta salad to make! I would recommend cooking the chicken first and kept warm while the pasta is cooking. This recipe would be great for a large family. This makes so much that you will have leftovers for 3 or 4 days (I am not complaining ;) )
