chicken salad

 Chicken salad:

4 chicken breasts, pre-cooked (grilled is good or rotisserie is also)

2 - 7 oz boxes of small circle noodles cooked per directions on the box

1 1/2 cups chopped celery

 2 cups each fresh broccoli chopped small and fresh carrots also bite sized

1 fresh onion, chopped

1/2 cup real bacon bits

1/2 cup sunflower seeds

1 cup cashews

Dressing:

3 cups mayonnaise

1 1/2 cups sugar

3/4 cup vinegar

3 tsp salt and 3 tsp pepper

Stir it all up and  you have a large container of salad, enough to feed at least twelve people.  Take some to the neighbors.

Vegetarian version?  Hold the chicken and bacon to the side until the end and scoop out a portion without meat.   Then add the meat and stir it up again.

Enjoy.
