I love to make this when I'm nearing the bottom of a jar of peanut butter. I mix the dressing right in the jar so every last bit of peanut butter is used. This makes a great summer dinner salad. Using rotisserie chicken, I only needed to cook the pasta in the morning, and the salad sat all day in the fridge. It's good for lunches as there is no mayo, and it's gluten-free if you can get the right pasta.
