Chicken Cesar Pasta Salad

I got this recipe a while ago from Moms Advice (which reminds me I need to go visit, it's been awhile!) and well, even though its really not so much a recipe as an idea, me and the Princess LOVE this stuff. Great way to use leftover chicken & pasta!

1 head romaine, sliced (note: I do not normally recommend you cut your lettuce, but for this its fine since you will be eating it all shortly)
handful of croutons
4 ounces (or just use leftovers!) pasta, preferably penne type (tubular) cooked
cooked chicken breast, cut into bite size chunks (or you can go smaller, almost shredded)
Parmesan cheese (I've kind of gotten hooked on the real fresh stuff from Costco)
Cesar dressing (again, Costco, even though I LOVE Ken's Low Fat Cesar dressing)

Take all the ingredients above, put in a bowl. Pour dressing over a little at a time, tossing to coat all well before adding more.  I personally do not like my salad swimming in the stuff, so I go light, but others like it heavier (uh, like Princess!)
