Description

This summery salad is delicious hot or cold, and is ready in 20 minutes!

Ingredients

  • 20 ounces, weight Meat-Based, Refrigerated Tortellini (Chicken And Prosciutto Is The Best!)
  • 2 cups Baby Spinach, Torn
  • 1 pint Grape Tomatoes, Halved
  • 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
  • ½ teaspoons Italian Seasoning With Garlic (OR Add A Pinch Of Garlic Power To Regular Italian Seasoning)
  • 1 cup Shredded Italian Cheese (Parmesan, Romano, Asiago, Mozzarella Or A Blend)

Preparation

1. Boil tortellini in salted water, according to the package directions. Drain.

2. While the tortellini is draining, tear baby spinach into bite-sized pieces, into a large bowl.

3. Slice grape tomatoes in half, and add to the spinach.

4. In a small bowl, blend olive oil and Italian seasoning together with a fork, to make a simple dressing.

5. Pour the dressing over the spinach and tomatoes; stir to coat.

6. Stir the shredded cheese into the dressed spinach mixture.

7. Add hot tortellini to the bowl; gently stir into the spinach mixture. The heat of the tortellini will melt the shredded cheese.

Serve hot, or chill for a few hours and serve cold.

I find meat filled tortellini in the refrigerated section at the grocery store–it’s usually by the ricotta and cream cheese area.

Looks good! I would like to try it, but where do you find meat-based tortellini at in the grocery store??
