Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (16 ounce) box mini penne pasta
1 ½ pounds chopped cooked chicken
½ cup diced green bell pepper
2 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese
⅓ cup chopped red onion
½ (8 ounce) bottle creamy Caesar salad dressing, or to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; add penne and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 7 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
