Shay has made this for several baby showers. It is so good that now she gets requests for it.

Ingredients
- 16 oz (7 cups) bow tie pasta
- 9 cups cooked chicken cubed
- 2 cups celery sliced
- 1/2 cup green onions sliced
- 1/4 cup pimento drained and chopped
- 1 package (16 oz) sweet green peas thawed
- 1 large can of sliced (or pieces) mushrooms drained
- 2 cups Hidden Valley Ranch dressing (buttermilk style)….I always make it from the package and make extra in case the pasta salad gets a little dry.
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 cups of cashews (do not mix in until ready to serve)
Directions
Cook pasta and chicken and then combine all ingredients (except cashews) together in a VERY large bowl….add cashews when you are ready to serve. This recipe can easily be cut in half if needed.
