How To Make An Addictively Delicious Tortellini Salad In Just 20 Minutes!
Your #pastasalad game is getting a serious upgrade and it’s all thanks to #cheesetortellini! Tortellini Pasta Salad is packed with big flavor and so easy to make thanks to a mix of fresh ingredients and a few #Mediterranean pantry staples!
Get the full recipe here:
You’re going to kick off this recipe with cheese tortellini pasta. Cook the pasta according to package directions and watch your salt content in the pasta water! This fresh pasta will pick up on that salty flavor way more than dry pasta would.
Next, pick your favorite Italian or Greek vinaigrette, drizzle it over the pasta, toss it all together, and let’s move it along to the rest of the ingredients!
You’ll start by slicing into a handful of grape tomatoes and red onion. Then, you’ll need the help of a few Mediterranean pantry staples: Pepperoncini peppers (or banana peppers), pitted Kalamata olives, and marinated artichokes. Give all of those ingredients a rough chop and add them to the bowl!
Last, but not least, pepperoni! Or really, any Italian cured meat will do. Cut the sliced deli meat into quarters and add them to the mix as well.
Finish off the pasta salad with shaved parmesan, salt, pepper, and fresh parsley for an extra special, fresh touch!
There are so many big flavors and textures going on in this #TortelliniPastaSalad! It's savory, delicious, and perfect for make-ahead lunches, potluck parties, BBQs, and more! Enjoy!
Pesto Tortellini Salad - Delight Of The Bite
Quick and EASY are two of my favorite words when it comes to cooking in the summer. I want to be outdoors enjoying the weather as much as possible, instead of working hard in my kitchen. This salad combines a couple of summertime gems like fresh basil and tomatoes and takes them to another level. I literally made this meal in under 15 minutes. And with jarred pesto it comes together lickety-split! I reference my slow roasted tomatoes which I featured in a previous video. I make them ahead and they last in the fridge for a week...unless you gobble them all up! My homemade pesto sans nuts is also a make ahead. My husband is allergic to nuts so I make my own and store it in freezer bags to use through out the year. YUM! Throw some fresh different colored tomatoes in and it's a feast for the eyes. I'll be making this one over and over this summer...plus it makes great leftovers. WIN!

Bring out the wonderful flavours of tomato, mozzarella and spicy red pesto dressing with this unique take on pasta salad.
Preparation time: 30 minutes.
Difficulty: Easy
Calories per serving: Unspecified
Ingredients for 4 people:
Pesto:
75 g of dried tomatoes (from a jar)
50 g of cheese (pecorino), grated (alternatively Parmesan)
25 g of cashew nuts
1 bunch of basil, fresh preferred
2 cloves of garlic, add more depending on your taste
4 tablespoons of oil from the jar of tomatoes

Salt and pepper
For the salad:
800 g of fresh tortellini with cheese filling

Cook tortellini according to instructions on the packet in salted water, drain and rinse with cold water. Let it cool down slightly.
Cut the dried tomatoes into strips for the pesto sauce. Finely grate the cheese. Peel and finely chop the garlic.
Now, crush the dried tomatoes, grated cheese, cashew nuts, basil and garlic in a blender until it all becomes a solid paste, and then mix with oil.
Dilute the pasta with balsamic vinegar and, if necessary, with a little water to get a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper if needed.
Mix the tortellini in a bowl.
Now, cut the cherry tomatoes into quarters or by half.
Dice the mozzarella cheese and cut the olives in half.
Mix together with tortellini, cover, and leave to stand.
