Michelle's Curried Chicken Pasta Salad

3/4 cup uncooked orzo- cook until al dente, then drain, add a little olive oile to keep it from sticking together and cool.
1 1/2 cups sooked chicken breast, cubed and seasoned with salt and pepper
1/2 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup sliced green onions, white and green parts
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup mango chutney (the shredded mango chutney is the best to use, but is hard to find.  If you don't have the shreeded chutney cut up an large mango pieces.)
1/2 - 3/4 tsp. curry powder
1/3 cup toasted coconut (for top of finished salad) optional
sunflower seeds (for top of finished salad)

Make dressing by mixing mayonnaise, chutney, and curry powder.  Mix salad ingredients and add dressing.  Season with salt and pepper if needed.  Sprinkle with toasted coconut and sunflower seeds.
