Chicken Caesar Bowtie Salad

I feel like when I think of a salad I think of a side dish to a main course. However, this salad we eat as our main course quite often and we feel full and satisfied as though we ate a big meal.  We actually eat this salad with all different types of dressing to. (It doesn't have to be caesar if you don't want it to be)

Recipe:
1 head of Romaine lettuce (Rinsed and chopped)
1/2 of a 1 lb. package of bowtie noodles
1 cucumber (diced into 4ths)(Optional)
1 Tomato (chopped) (Optional)
2 Chicken Breasts
Lemon Pepper for seasoning
Caesar Dressing (or dressing of choice)

Season chicken breasts with lemon pepper and bake @ *375 for 25-30 minutes. Slice into thin strips. Meanwhile, while chicken is cooking, cook noodles as directed on package. Drain and rinse in cold water. Rinse lettuce well and dry. Chop lettuce, cucumber, and tomato. Assemble all ingredients together in a large bowl. Top with seasoned croutons and dressing of choice.
