Chicken and Fruit Pasta Salad

I do love me some good summery salads.  It's salads like these that you can find in every ward cookbook out there, with slight variations...because everyone loves recipes like this!  This one is mighty tasty and hits the spot on a hot summer day.  I especially loved the apples in this one...tasty, tasty stuff.  Enjoy:)
