Chicken Cheddar Pasta Salad

Another great favorite, especially for a salad supper.  Serve this along with fresh fruit and muffins and you have an easy meal. If you plan to double or triple this recipe, I must warn you that it multiplies. This can be served without the spring mix, but it makes a beautiful salad for a buffet table.
