Ingredients


1 dash Black pepper
2 tbsp Caesar salad dressing (or vegan cesar dressing)
1 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
2 cup Grape tomato (s)
2 cup Kale
1 dash Kosher salt
114 gm Parmesan cheese, vegan (or nutritional yeast)
2 1/2 cup Pasta, Farfalle, dry (gluten-free if needed)

  3. Chop the kale into small pieces and add to the bowl with the pasta. Then add the roasted cherry tomatoes and the chicken. 
  4. Pour about half of the bottle of Ken's Creamy Caesar Dressing onto the salad and gently toss, adding more dressing if desired. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and season with freshly ground black pepper.
