Texture freaks, I’ve got your permanent salad crush staring ya down.

Pasta lovers/chicken lovers/Asian food lovers you’re also all taken care of. This.Salad.Is.BOMB.

My FAVORITE salads are ones that are basically a meal in themselves because they’re so loaded down with goodness. This Asian chicken crunch salad is hittin’ all the checkmarks.

So obviously its hitting my lunch agenda every day for the foreseeable future. It should come to no surprise to you that it was also breakfast a few weeks ago.

Okay, so lets talk about the crunch factor in this pasta salad. IT’S SO FREAKING GOOD. We’ve got sweet peppers, shredded cabbage + carrots and crushed ramen noodles comin’ in for the crunch texture and it is scary good.

From there it’s just a pile of leftover chicken, rotini pasta, a handful of green onions, and a sweet ‘n’ tangy homemade Asian dressing. TOSS IT UP. DEVOUR IT.

Pro tip: if you’re making this salad ahead of time, don’t add the crushed ramen until right before so it keeps its crunch.

Also, how many times can I say crunch this blog post….help….

You will be eating this chicken crunch pasta salad straight outta the bowl with your bare hands, no lies, guys.

Literally nothing to hate in this salad. Its totally my go-to now and about to become yours.
