Chicken Club Pasta Salad (Gluten & Dairy Free)

chicken club pasta salad 1

Hello everyone, today’s recipe is for one of my favourite lunches – Gluten and Dairy Free Chicken Club Pasta Salad. It is a perfect idea to prep ahead if you are having a busy day or take with you on the go. When things open up a bit after lockdown I’m planning on making this dish as part of some summer picnics or for a barbecue side dish. 

I’m currently typing out this post while I’m on the exercise bike. I’m trying to be a bit more active – lockdown has made me lazy. I’m taking part in a virtual challenge to walk or cycle from Lands End to John O’Groats. I’m a 150 miles in so far so about another 900 miles to go!
