Nothing beats a good macaroni salad--except maybe one that's gluten free and with chunks of grilled chicken breast and chopped tomatoes.

1 (12 ounce) box Barilla® Gluten Free Elbows
2 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

1/2 cup diced celery
3 large tomatoes, diced

Directions

1 Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
2 Meanwhile, season the chicken with salt & pepper and 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
3 Grill the chicken about 4 minutes per side or until fully cooked - set aside to cool. Cut into bite-size pieces.
4 Cook pasta according to package directions.
5 In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, red wine vinegar, sugar and celery seed - stir to combine. Then, season with salt and pepper to taste.
