Ingredients

Cost per recipe $3.92 view details
  • 1 pkt (9 ozs.) refrigerated cheese-filled tortellini
  • 1 x Pacage, (9 ozs.) refrigerated cheese-filled spinach tortellini
  • 2/3 c. Italian dressing
  • 2 Tbsp. Minced fresh basil leaves
  • 1 Tbsp. Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 Tbsp. Capers, liquid removed
  • 1/8 tsp Pepper
  • 2 med Carrots, sliced, (1 c.)
  • 2 med Green onions, minced

Directions

  1. Cook and drain regular and spinach tortellini as directed on package. Rinse with cool water; drain.
  2. Place tortellini and remaining ingredients in glass or possibly plastic bowl; toss to coat with dressing. Cover and chill about 2 hrs or possibly till chilled. Toss before serving.
  3. Anyway - I make a similar salad with cooked and liquid removed cheese filled tortellini, liquid removed dark red kidney beans, and sauteed onions and celery.
  4. The dressing is a mix of extra virgin olive oil, Italian Herb seasoning and a little sugar.
  5. I do not have any measurements for this salad as I basically make it from whatever I have on hand at the time - sometimes adding in fresh tomato wedges, sometimes using a spinach or possibly the colorful spiral noodles with or possibly instead of the tortellini, sometimes using Great Northern Beans instead of and sometimes with the dark red kidney beans. Sometimes I even add little cubes of cheese. Is always a favorite at the spreads I take it to.
