#GlutenFree Penne hot salad with basil, asparagus, cherry tomatoes fresh mozzarella and chicken with a mustard vineagarete for #SundaySupper

So I love a great Salad that you can either serve hot or cold and after I received a case of  tomatoes;  I knew exactly what I would make for #SundaySupper.  A salad that reminded me of Summer in a bowl but with a twist of Italy.

Ingredients for Penne hot salad with basil, asparagus, cherry tomatoes fresh mozzarella and chicken with a mustard vinaigrette:

1 Bag of cooked Penne Gluten free of course I used Trader Joe's Brown Rice Penne
1 cup of sliced  in half cherry tomatoes
2 cups slightly cooked asparagus
1/2 cup basil sliced and or chopped
2 cups of fresh Mozzarella cubed
2 cups chicken from either left overs or a rotisarie chicken



Summer in a Bowl Dressing:
3 Tablespoon Brown Gulden's Mustard
1/4 cup Aged Balsamic Vinegar
2 Large cloves of garlic grated on planer to make paste
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
1/4 teaspoon sugar
½ cup of Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Cook Pasta according to directions I like to boil 7 minutes string constantly then let sit for 3 on murky water then rinse in hot water.

Cut asparagus and put in pan cover with water until it boils than immediately pour cold water over so it stops cooking. I like to put mine in a colander then run under water until cold to the touch.

In a measuring cup mix first 6 ingredients together than whisk in olive oil so it emulsifies

Slice tomatoes, mozzarella, basil  and chicken and place in bowl

Next add cooled a asparagus

then pasta and toss with mustard vinaigrette.

Let vinaigrette sit  and soak up pasta for about 5 to 10 minutes then serve.


Also don't forget tonight is Sunday and what does that mean it's time to gather around the #Sunday Supper table.

So I turned to the #SundaySupper team and asked them what their favorite items to bring to a Labor Day Cookout.  As usual, they did not disappoint.  I am telling you, if you ever need inspiration or a new recipe, this is the group to come to.  They will blow you away with their recipes.
