Pesto Chicken Pasta

This is Chuck's famous dish--he made it on our first date, and its one of the main things he cooks when it's his turn to cook--it is actually very yummy!

Ingredients:
8 oz (4 cups) uncooked bowtie pasta
2 red or green bell peppers seeded and cut into slices
1 medium zucchini cut into slices
1/2 red onion cut into slices
3 boneless, skinless chicken breasts cut into cubes
1/2 cup Italian salad dressing
1/2 cup pesto sauce

Directions:
1. Cook pasta, drain, and keep covered to keep warm.
2. While pasta is cooking, combine veggies, chicken and dressing in a medium bowl and toss well. Place in a baking pan and cook for about 15 minutes on 350 or so (our oven is messed up so you'll have to play with temperature). Stir occasionally throughout the cooking and it's finished when chicken is no longer pink.
3. Add pasta and pesto to chicken and veggies pan and mix well.
