Servings: 8 servings
Calories: 331kcal
Ingredients
- 8 ounces rotini pasta cooked, drained and cooled
- 2 cups cooked chicken shredded
- 2 cups romaine lettuce chopped
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes
- 2 cups Caesar croutons divided
- 1 cup shaved or shredded Parmesan cheese
- ½ cup Caesar dressing homemade or store-bought, divided
- 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning
Instructions
- Prepare 8 ounces rotini pasta according to the package directions for al dente doneness. (Cook, drain, and cool.)
- In a large bowl, toss together the pasta, 2 cups cooked chicken, 2 cups romaine lettuce, 2 cups cherry tomatoes, 1 cup of the croutons, 1 cup shaved or shredded Parmesan cheese, ¼ cup dressing, and 1 tablespoon Greek seasoning. Stir until well combined.
- Transfer to a serving bowl and add the remaining croutons and Caesar salad dressing on top. Serve!
Notes
- Leftovers store well in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. We like to add fresh croutons when serving for a nice crunch!
- Any pasta you have on hand will work in this, but we love rotini because the spirals hold the dressing well!
- If you don't have Greek seasoning, you can replace it with Italian seasoning or a mix of dried basil, oregano, and garlic powder.
- To make this gluten-free, use gluten-free noodles and gluten-free croutons, and double-check that your Caesar dressing is gluten-free.
