CURRIED FRUIT & PASTA SALAD

Curried Fruit & Pasta Salad image

This dish goes great with pork, although we often eat as the main dish itself. I find this is an 'addictive' salad-- there is never any leftover. Initially I couldn't imagine that these flavors would go well together, but it is perfect. Do not omit any of the ingredients otherwise you will miss them. The chicken can be subbed for tuna, although we don't care for that variation. Prep time includes pasta cook time as you prep while it cooks. We don't always chill first. This recipe is a family favorite and I don't know where it came from.
