BLT Bow Tie Pasta Salad

I made this one time when a bunch of family came to dinner and it was a huge hit. Now it is requested often. I have also made it without the romaine, which can get soggy in the leftovers. Yummy!!

2 1/2 cups uncooked bow tie pasta
6 cups torn romaine
1 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken breast
1 medium tomato diced
4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
1 cup diced mozzarella cheese
1/3 cup mayo
1/4 cup water( I don't always use it)
3-6 TBSP bbq sauce or to taste
1 1/2 tsp white vinegar
salt and pepper to taste

Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. In a large serving bowl, combine the pasta, romaine, chicken, tomato and bacon. In a small bowl, whisk together the mayo, water bbq sauce, vinegar, and salt and pepper. Pour over pasta mixture and toss to coat evenly. Serve immediately. Serves 10.
