APRICOT PASTA SALAD



Apricot Pasta Salad image

This unusual, summery pasta salad recipe comes courtesy of the California Apricot Council. I love apricots, and will be trying this once fresh ones come into season. If you can't find fresh apricots, canned ones might make a suitable substitute. NOTE: Cooking time is for the pasta. If you chop the veggies while the pasta cooks and cools, and use store-bought rotisserie chicken, this can be a snap to put together.
