Dijon Chicken Pasta Salad

1 package Betty Crocker® Suddenly Salad® classic pasta salad mix
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 tablespoons cold water
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 cup cubed cooked chicken
Vegetables (optional)


Empty Pasta mix into 3-quart saucepan 2/3 full of boiling water. Gently boil uncovered about 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
While pasta is cooking, stir together seasoning mix, oil, water and mustard in large bowl. Stir in any vegetables and chicken.
When pasta is done, drain & rinse in cold water. Shake to remove excess water. Mix into seasoning, chicken & vegetables. Refrigerate any remaining salad.

To Freeze: Combine seasoning mix, oil, water, cooked chicken and mustard in a freezer bag.
To Serve: Cook pasta (as above) and mix into chicken mixture.

**Note: Vegetables are optional, but I used tomatoes and cucumbers and loved it. Sometimes I add olives. Carrots & broccoli are also good, but if you use them, they need to be slightly cooked (so that they are not raw but are still crunchy).

Sides: Hard rolls, corn on the cob, jello, fruit, etc.
