Fiesta Chicken Pasta Salad

I'm trying to be better about trying new recipes..so here is one that I made this past week. I really liked the flavor and it's a fun summery salad :)

2 cups chicken breast cooked and cubed or sliced (season with a little salt and pepper and garlic powder)
1 lb. package bowtie pasta cooked according to package directions
1 can corn, drained
1 can black beans, rinsed & drained
1 green pepper, diced
1 handful of cilantro, chopped
1 package grape tomatoes, halved
2 cans sliced olives, drained
1 cucumber, peeled and diced
Salsa ranch salad dressing
Cook pasta according to package directions. Drain and cool. Add all ingredients in a bowl. Toss and mix in dressing. Season with salt and pepper.
