WARM GARLIC & HERB TORTELLINI SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss together the peppers, fennel, onions, oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook as the label directs; drain. Combine in a large bowl with the roasted vegetables and cool slightly.
• Add the spinach, salami and Italian Herb & Garlic Dressing to the bowl and toss. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the basil and fennel fronds.

ITALIAN TORTELLINI-VEGETABLE SALAD

Steps:

• Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix tomatoes, onion, parsley, bell pepper and artichokes.
• Add tortellini, cauliflower and broccoli to salad; stir gently. Add dressing and reserved 1/4 cup artichoke liquid; toss to mix. Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate until serving time.

CHEESE TORTELLINI SALAD

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. Cook tortellini at a boil, stirring occasionally, until the pasta floats to the top and the filling is hot, 6 to 8 minutes; drain. Rinse tortellini with cold water until completely cooled; drain and transfer to a large bowl.
• Stir pepperoni, provolone cheese, artichoke hearts, black olives, Italian-style salad dressing, dry Italian dressing mix, and black pepper with the tortellini. Add more Italian dressing just before serving, if desired.

TORTELLINI SALAD

Steps:

• Start by defrosting/cooking the cheese tortellini in a pot of boiling water. The tortellini are ready when they float in the water and are heated through. Move them to a colander to drain, and set aside.
• Drain and coarsely chop the black olives (you can use pre-chopped olives to save time). Peel the onion, de-seed the pepper, and coarsely chop them as well.
• Place chopped vegetables and cheese tortellini in a large bowl. Sprinkle desired amount of cheese (feta or mozzarella) and the olive oil and red wine vinegar over the vegetables and tortellini, and then toss it all together. If you are using mozzarella cheese, it will probably melt a bit, which is fine.
• Give the salad a taste, and add salt and pepper as desired. You may also want to add more olive oil or vinegar, depending on your preference. You can eat the salad right away, warm, or save it for later and eat it cold. The flavors will meld and (in my opinion) get better with time, so make sure you make enough for leftovers!
