CHIPOTLE CHICKEN PASTA SALAD
Smoky chipotle with sweet crunchy corn! As always you can tailor it to your taste. If you can't find chipotle ranch dressing, use just ranch, add extra chipotle sauce or chipotles in adobo with or without the peppers. If you can't find or don't have a spice grinder, use chipotle powder and some garlic salt. Don't like corn,...

Steps:
- 1. Prepare pasta as instructed on box, meanwhile in a large bowl, toss the chicken with half of the chipotle sauce. then add peppers, beans and corn.
- 2. Once pasta is cooked, rinse in cold water to stop the cooking, drain put back in pan and add the ranch dressing, and few twists of grinder spices.
- 3. Add pasta mixture to chicken mixture, stir in remaining chipotle sauce, then chill or not and enjoy!
- 4. Since I feel pasta soaks up sauces when warm, save some to add when serving. Also try adding some shredded cheddar, bacon bits or chopped cilantro it would certainly kick it up a notch!
