Tortellini Salad
I love a chilled Tortellini Salad in the summer. It’s a simple side dish that goes great with burgers, air fried chicken, skewers, and more. Plus, you can make it a day ahead and it’s perfect to bring to a BBQ or potluck. This basic veggie tortellini salad can be modified by adding baby mozzarella cheese, feta cheese, bell peppers, diced salami, you name it! If you’re looking for more BBQ side dishes, try this Chilled Italian Shrimp Tortellini Pasta Salad, Macaroni Salad, Rainbow Potato Salad, and Greek Pasta Salad.
I know I’ve converted so many of you into Delallo fans! They have the best pasta, gluten-free pasta, whole wheat pasta, pizza dough kits, gnocchi, olive oil, olives, and more! I partnered with them again to create this wonderful tortellini salad using their Three-Cheese Tortellini Pasta. Their authentic Italian tortellini recipe begins with delicate egg pasta made from only the finest quality durum wheat semolina around a savor, nutty blend of fine Italian cheeses. I personally love it in tortellini salad, I find the refrigerated kind falls apart too easy in salads while Delallo’s holds its shape well. It’s a superior egg pasta with delicate flavor stuffed with creamy, flavorful Italian cheeses.
Ingredients:
Tortellini: I love using Delallo three cheese tortellini, Broccoli: Chop the broccoli into small bite-sized pieces. Tomatoes: Cut grape or cherry tomatoes in half. Red Onion: Swap red onion for shallot or green onions, if desired. Olives: Buy canned sliced black olives to cut down on prep. Sub them with kalamata olives if you prefer. Dressing: Drizzle extra virgin olive oil and red wine vinegar over the salad and season with salt, garlic, garlic powder, and dried parsley.
