Balsamic Chicken Pasta Salad

This recipe was ok but it was missing something that I haven't identified yet.  I would try it again with a different balsamic dressing the one I picked was not the best.

Ingredients

3 cups rotini pasta noodles
1 package chicken tenderloins
1 cup balsamic vinaigrette dressing, divided
2 carrots
1 bell pepper
1 cucumber
1 tomato (or more if you like more)
Salt/Pepper, to taste

Directions:
Make sure the chicken is cooked.  I had precooked chicken in the crock pot and this was my last portion of it.

Cook the pasta until it is at your desired tenderness. Drain it and cool it down.

Chop up the veggies and chicken

Mix all ingredients in a bowl.  I made this the night before so that it could marinate.
