Ingredients

2 cups penne pasta cooked (whole wheat pasta works great in this recipe)
4 ounces feta cheese (or mozzarella cheese)
2 cups cherry tomatoes (I cut mine in half, but that is completely optional)
1 handful fresh basil leaves shredded into small pieces
½ cup red onion diced
2 cups cooked chicken breast diced (rotisserie chicken is perfect for this)
1 (14 ounce) cab artichoke hearts chopped
1 (2.25 ounce) can sliced black olives
1 medium cucumber diced
1½ cups italian salad dressing

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix all ingredients together. Chill for about 2 hours before serving, to allow dressing to soak into other ingredients.
