The ingredients for Granny's Pasta Salad are:

GV Garden Rotini - 075 cup dry, 6 cup (this is a 16 oz box)
Red Ripe Tomatoes, 1 large whole (3" dia)
Cucumber (peeled), 1 medium
Broccoli, fresh, 1 cup, chopped
Cauliflower, raw, .75 cup
Shallots, 3 tbsp chopped
Chicken Breast, no skin, 2 breast, bone and skin removed
Olive Oil, .25 cup

Here is how you make Granny's Pasta Salad:

Boil pasta as directed on package. While the pasta is cooking, sprinkle chicken breasts with basil and garlic powder. Saute in olive oil until done and cut into small cubes or slices. Cut up vegetables as you prefer. Mix all ingredients together and cover and chill for at least overnight. If you don't want to let it sit this long, refrigerate until it is cold. I usually pour about a half a bottle of Italian dressing on this before refrigerating it. If you don't like Italian, then use your choice. But, you can just chill it overnight and let your guests add their choice of dressing. This will serve about 12 to 16 one cup portions.
