Scrumptious Chicken Salad

• 12 ounces uncooked pasta (I like bowties)
• 2 cups cooked chicken breasts, cubed
• 2/3 cup finely chopped celery
• 2 cups cooked peas
• 1 (15 ounce) can pineapple tidbits
• 1/4 cup slivered almonds (toasted or not)
• 1 (2 ounce) jar diced pimientos
• 1 1/4 cups mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1. Cook pasta, al dente, drain and rinse with cold water; drain well.
2. Blend mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt and pepper.
3. Drain pineapple, saving juice.
4. Gently stir all ingredients together, adding as much of the reserved pineapple juice as needed to moisten.
5. Save any extra pineapple juice in case you need to add more after salad has chilled and absorbed some of the dressing.
6. Chill well.
