Spring Chicken Pasta Salad

I had lunch with a friend the other day and she made this AMAZING pasta chicken salad. It was very light and refreshing. Perfect for spring:) YIPPEE! And as it turns out, its super easy!

Combine the following and chill overnight:
3 cups cubed, cooked chicken. I add a little garlic salt and black pepper.
2/3 C mayo or salad dressing
2 Tbsp minced onion
2 tsp salt
4 Tbsp lemon juice

Add:
1 can mandarin oranges
1-2 C green grapes, halved as preferred
1/4 C slivered almonds
1 lb. elbow macaroni, cooked
Garlic salt to taste.

Chill and serve with optional parmesean cheese. Makes enough to serve an army! :-)
