I brought this to a birthday party. It was great even though as I was making it, I forgot to add the bullion while making the noodles. It was still great. I did add bacon bits, because bacon makes everything great.

I think this recipe is very good, but has way too much dressing for my taste. I made it as-is, and the ranchy-ness gave it too much mayo taste, which covered up the other ingredients. I will make this again, and either cut the ranch totally out and just have the steak sauce, or replace the ranch and steak sauce with some balsamic vinegar.

I love this salad and have made it several times. I use Kraft Ranch as I like how creamy it is. I use bowtie pasta and added sugar snap peas to it for crunch. Great recipe!!!

I really enjoyed this. I would defintely play around with it more the next time I made it. Maybe add a bit more salt and possibly some black beans. It was very good and satisfying.

This was unexpectedly delicious! Even my very picky children ate this! It makes a ton, perfect for a potluck. Thanks for this new and different recipe!

With some modifications I really enjoyed this recipe. I didn't use any onions, I'm not a fan of the raw onion "crunch" in a salad. I also did the chicken Cajun style(3 breasts not 2), didn't marinate, but the spice added great body to the dish. I did throw a few dashes of hot sauce in as well(we like spice in my family!) I only used one avocado and diced it very small, I love them but they are very rich and I wanted the stars to be the pasta and chicken. And the bouillon cubs in the water for the pasta is grrreat! I loved that. Ok, maybe more than SOME modifications but it's a great base recipe to play around with, Thank you!

SOOO GOOD! Reminds me a lot of the Crispy Cobb Salad which is my favorite!!! Which is why I decided to add some cheddar cheese to it as well. Will definitely be using again! Thanks!

The taste was great - but next time I will use half the onion and double the chicken breast halves. My husband and brother both thought those were the only changes needed. Maybe we got a whopper of a vidalia onion - that much onion was a little overpowering.

Our local store had avocados on sale for .49 so I needed a few good recipes! This one was a hit around here. I made two small changes. I used low fat ranch dressing and added green pepper for some crunch! But, had I not done either, it would have turned out just as good!

I had to modify this recipe a little because I thought the ranch dressing would be too much and that would be all you could taste. I added italian dressing and parmesan cheese instead. This was a great way to use some leftover, grilled chicken. YUM!
