Pasta Salad

Bow tie pasta
Cubed chicken, browned
Sunflower seeds
green & red pepper chopped small
green onions
pineapple, drained
shredded mozzarella cheese
mayonnaise
some pineapple juice

Mix all together and serve. I got this from Enrichment night. There was no recipe so I would just guess on the amounts. I might also use canned shredded chicken due to my distaste of handling raw meat.

Bean Dip (we think it'd be great on a salad too!)
1 can of red beans

1/2 of a green pepper chopped into bean size pieces, some red onion. I used about 3 slices. Chopped fine.
