Found this recipe in a Penzeys Spice Store on a recipe card. Sounded so good I bought the spice blend that goes in this dish and have been hooked on that blend ever since!

SOUTHWESTERN CHICKEN PASTA SALAD
SUPERB!! I love this salad! I am submitting this on behalf of my friend Christa......she is a fantastic cook and came up with this wonderful salad. I thought I would share it with all of you, enjoy! Note: Use a little more mayo than what you think looks right, it is absorbed into the pasta overnight. If it's too dry at first then it will be way too dry the next day. Salad is to be slightly moist after chilling. Cooking time is chilling time. It is best if chilled overnight to get all the flavors soaked in well.
