Greek Pasta Salad

1 pound rotini
1 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts
3 stalks celery -- chopped
1 red bell pepper -- chopped
2 1/4 ounces black olives -- sliced
4 ounces feta cheese -- drained & crumbled
3 green onions -- finely sliced
16 ounces Italian salad dressing
Cook chicken in water to cover with 1 bay leaf. Bring to boil and cook for 30 min. or until juices run clear. Cool and remove skins. Or, you can cook chicken in frying pan until cooked through. Cut into bite size pieces. Cook noodles and drain. Add all ingredients and mix well. I use only about half the bottle of dressing and then put the rest on the table if someone wants more. Serve warm or cold. Serves 6
