Cook pasta according to package instructions.  About one minute before it finishes cooking, add the pea pods.  Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain again.

In a large bowl, add pasta and pea pods along with remaining salad ingredients, except the parmesan cheese.

Whisk together dressing ingredients.  Toss salad with dressing, cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight to blend the flavours.  Before serving toss in Parmesan cheese.

A quick way to get cooked chicken is to buy a rotisserie chicken from the grocery store.  A 3 lb (1.5 kg) rotisserie chicken provides 2 1/2 – 3 cups of boneless, skinless meat.

If Saskatoon berries aren’t available, use blueberries or blackberries

For a locally made pasta, look for Nature’s Farm.  It’s available at the St Norbert Market and some grocery stores, or you can buy directly from their web site.
