Southwest Chicken Salad

Nothing says summertime to me more than pasta salad paired with fried chicken. I have fond memories of picnics and lazy days at the lake with my grandparents and a bucket of fresh fried chicken with all the fixings.

  As a busy mom of two, I love picking up an assortment of fresh fried chicken from the Wal-Mart deli to take along to summer BBQ’s and 4th of July Celebrations. They always have a nice selection to choose from and you can even pick from several different sauces to go on them.

    If I tried to make a large batch of this, how long would it last in the fridge? Or is there a better storage option for longer storage?
