I make this ahead of time for camping. It is easy to dish up.

This cool and creamy chicken salad recipe will be a big hit at your next picnic or cookout. We really enjoyed the flavor Miracle Whip brings to the salad. There's a slight tang from it. The chicken and pasta pair well with the delicious spices. Crunchy bits of celery throughout are yummy and add texture. Using a store-bought rotisserie chicken means this can be prepped in no time.

Note: We cooked 4 cups of pasta. The Test Kitchen

How to Make Cold Chicken Salad

Step-by-Step

Boil noodles. Rinse with cool water.
Chop all ingredients and set aside. I have made this various ways when it comes to the chicken. You can boil a chicken breast, use a can of shredded chicken, chop 3 chicken tenders from the store or use rotisserie chicken. I usually use the rotisserie as then I get 2 dinners out of one chicken.
Mix together the mayonnaise, Miracle Whip, and spices.
Add to a large bowl and toss with the pasta, chicken, onion, and celery. Chill for 1 hour.
Serve with a roll for a great lunch or dinner.
