Chicken Cherry Salad (Similar to Damico and Son Turkey with Dried Cherries Salad)

1/2 Box of Rotini Noodles (Whole Grain)
Dried Cherries - 1/2 of a 5 Oz Bag(2.5 oz)
Almonds - 1/2 of a 8 oz bag (4 oz) **Note** Chris thought the almonds were too hard an alternative would be pecans
Grapes Halved - About 1 Cup
1/2 Onion Finely Chopped
Mayo - About 1 Cup
2 Tsp of Sugar
Sour Cream - About 1/4 a Cup
Cooked Chicken -I used one can
Olive Oil

Cook the noodles. Drain and add a little bit of olive oil to prevent sticking. Add ice to cool down the noodles quickly. Once cooled mix the noodles with the rest of the ingredients and enjoy.

Optional Alternative:
Add finely chopped celery to the above ingredients.
