Grilled Chicken Bow Tie Pasta Salad (page 90)
Need to get your kids to eat their veggies? This dish is the solution to your problem. My kids don't even notice the vegetables mixed in with the other yummy ingredients. It is simple to make with leftover grilled chicken or shredded rotisserie chicken.

2 cups fresh broccoli florets
2 to 3 cups chopped, grilled chicken

4 oz. Colby Jack cheese, cubed
1 (2¼ oz) can sliced black olives
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
