CURRIED FRUIT & PASTA SALAD



Curried Fruit & Pasta Salad image

This dish goes great with pork, although we often eat as the main dish itself. I find this is an 'addictive' salad-- there is never any leftover. Initially I couldn't imagine that these flavors would go well together, but it is perfect. Do not omit any of the ingredients otherwise you will miss them. The chicken can be subbed for tuna, although we don't care for that variation. Prep time includes pasta cook time as you prep while it cooks. We don't always chill first. This recipe is a family favorite and I don't know where it came from.

YUMMY FRUIT 'N' PASTA SALAD



Yummy Fruit 'n' Pasta Salad image

This is my take on the recipe that is usually printed on the box of Acini de Pepi. It has become one of our favorites. I even will eat the left-overs for breakfast. You can substitute the mandarin orange juice instead of the pineapple juice. Prep time includes letting it set overnight in the fridge.
