Bow-Tie Spinach Salad

No cranberries, but Craisins are close right?

Bow-Tie Spinach Salad
2 cups cooked chicken
1 box Bow-tie Pasta, cooked & drained
1/2 bunch green onion, chopped
3 oz Craisins
1/4 cup slivered almonds OR honey-roasted sunflower seeds
2 cans mandarin oranges, drained
1 bag baby leaf spinach

Dressing:
1 cup vegetable oil
2/3 cup rice wine vinegar
2/3 cup teriyaki sauce
6 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Mix ingredients for dressing. Mix together chicken, pasta, and green onions. Pour 1/2 dressing over and let marinate. When you're ready to eat add everything else and mix. Usually there is enough dressing on that I don't use the other 1/2 , but some people like to add more on.

Yes. It's the only grown-up salad I know how to make. :)
