Mexican Chicken Pasta Salad Prep

Another M&S inspired recipe for lunch- they recently launched a Mexican Chicken Pasta Bowl which is sooo lovely but quite ultra processed. I feel like the picture doesn’t even do it justice!! 🤣😍This veggie packed pasta salad is inspired by the M&S one but packed with more protein and fibre with cooked chicken, crunchy peppers, sweetcorn, cheddar and a creamy high protein dressing which is super easy to make (and also makes a great dip for the next time you have fajitas!!) This is also super easy to make veggie too and I have added some options in the notes!

Made the Mexican chicken breast myself so it took a while longer to make but well worth it and perfect for a hot summer evening meal …..AND two portions left for lunches!

Had to use different pasta, but what a great meal for summer days! Packed full of flavour and lovely crunchy veg. My only criticism is that the ingredients for 4 people made enough for 5/6 people.

Very easy to put together and fab for this hot weather. Really love the crunch, and subtle sweetness from the honey. Had a little bit of a kick to it, which was nice :-)
