BLT Pasta Salad...

1 package bow tie pasta
16 oz. package thick cut bacon, cooked, and crumbled
4 vine-ripe tomatoes, halved and sliced
3 handfuls spinach
13 oz. can white chicken shredded with fork or 1 Rotisserie Chicken (Optional)
½ cup mayonnaise
2 Tbs. cider vinegar
1 tsp. Sugar
½ tsp. Salt
¼ tsp. Black pepper

Cook pasta according to package directions. Rinse under cold water, drain, and transfer to large bowl. Pour about 1 tsp. Extra Virgin Olive Oil on pasta to keep from sticking together. Add bacon, tomatoes, spinach, and chicken. Put in fridge. In small bowl, whisk together mayo, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper. I usually double the dressing. When ready to eat, toss mayo mixture with pasta and serve immediately.
