TORTELLINI PASTA SALAD
Steps:
- Gather the salad ingredients.
- Cook the tortellini in salted water following the package directions. Transfer the pasta to a colander and rinse with cold water to stop any carryover cooking.
- In a large bowl, combine the tortellini, grape tomatoes, salami or ham, cucumber, spinach, red onion, black olives, and mozzarella cheese. If desired, add pepperoncini and basil. Gently fold the ingredients together, then season to taste with salt and pepper. Refrigerate the salad until about an hour before you plan to serve it. Prepare the Dressing and Assemble the Salad
- Gather the salad dressing ingredients.
- Combine the salad dressing, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, and onion powder in a large screw-top jar, cruet, or bowl. Shake or whisk to combine the ingredients thoroughly.
- Pour the dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine.
- Refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving. Toss again, then add any garnishes if desired. Enjoy!

COLORFUL TORTELLINI PASTA SALAD
I get a lot of requests for this pretty and flavorful pasta salad. I like lighter dressing, so if you like more, you may want to increase the oil and vinegar. I haven't gotten any complaints about this though - only compliments! :) I use dry, tri-color tortellini, but you can use refrigerated tortellini or whatever pasta you like. I think fresh herbs and fresh parmesan cheese (not the powdered stuff in the can!) make a big difference in this recipe. I haven't tried it yet, but I think fresh broccoli would also be nice in this. This recipe makes a ton, so it is great for larger gatherings. The number of servings is a guess!
