Spinach Tortellini Salad
This spinach tortellini salad is a quick and simple pasta salad that the whole family will love!
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 8 ounces salami, chopped
- 1 (20 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
- 1/2 small red onion
- 2 cups spinach (packed) chopped
- 8 ounces tomatoes (grape, cherry, etc.) halved
- Handful fresh basil sliced thin
- Salt & pepper to taste
Dressing:
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Boil a large, salted pot of water for the tortellini. Cook it according to package directions. Once cooked, rinse with cool water and drain well.
- Meanwhile, add the dressing ingredients to a small bowl and whisk together (or shake in a jar).
- Prep your other ingredients and add them to a large bowl.
- Once the tortellini has cooled a bit, add it to the bowl and toss everything with the dressing. Serve immediately.
Notes
- The spinach can wilt, so I suggest adding the dressing right before eating this pasta salad.
- Adjust dressing ingredients as needed e.g. add more oil or vinegar to suit your tastes.
- If you prefer, you can use store-bought Italian salad dressing instead of the homemade one.
- Serves 6-8 depending on how much people eat (can be a side dish or main course).
