Grilled Chicken and Pasta Salad

This recipe was given to me by my aunt Linda. She made it for a baby shower and it was a huge hit. She was kind enough to share this recipe with us and I have made it many times since then. My sister, Alisa, told me that this is her husband's favorite and is constantly requesting it. It is so simple and so good!
