Ingredients
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 cup Caesar dressing
1 lemon zested and juiced
1/3 cup parmesan cheese, shredded
4 cups tricolored fusilli or rotini pasta, cooked and cooled (about 8 ounces uncooked)

Step 1
Bake
Preheat oven to 425ºF. Place nuggets on a baking sheet and sprinkle with garlic powder. Bake for 9 to 10 minutes. If frozen, add 2 minutes to the baking time. For a crispier product, turn the nuggets halfway through heating time. Let stand 2-3 minutes before serving.
Step 2
Whisk
In a large bowl, whisk together the Caesar dressing, lemon zest and juice.
Step 3
Toss
To the bowl of dressing, add the pasta, lettuce, and chicken nuggets. Toss well to coat with dressing.
Step 4
