Lisa's Asian Salad

**ok this salad makes me SMILE from ear to ear....this recipe is from my friend Lisa Stanley

SALAD:
1 bag of spinach
1 box bow tie (about 2 cups or a little more, boiled and cooled off)
1 c craisins
1 c slivered almonds
1 can mandarin oranges
1 c green grapes
3 chicken breasts (baked in yoshida sauce on 350 for 45-60 min)
1 can pears (optional)

DRESSING:
**whisk olive oil, sugar and vinegar, add sesame oil, then place all in a blender and blend really well. (You will most likely NOT use all of this dressing...so add a little at a time....you dont want the salad drenched in oil)
2/3 c olive oil
1/2 c sesame oil
1/2 c sugar
2 tsp lime juice
2 tsp salt
4 T balsamic vinegar

In a large bowl combine oranges, grapes, almonds, craisins. Then toss in spinach. Add in pasta, and drizzle dressing on top.. Mix with your hands to get the dressing really mixed up.
