COLORFUL TORTELLINI PASTA SALAD

I get a lot of requests for this pretty and flavorful pasta salad. I like lighter dressing, so if you like more, you may want to increase the oil and vinegar. I haven't gotten any complaints about this though - only compliments! :) I use dry, tri-color tortellini, but you can use refrigerated tortellini or whatever pasta you like. I think fresh herbs and fresh parmesan cheese (not the powdered stuff in the can!) make a big difference in this recipe. I haven't tried it yet, but I think fresh broccoli would also be nice in this. This recipe makes a ton, so it is great for larger gatherings. The number of servings is a guess!

Steps:

  • Cook pasta according to directions on the package.
  • When making any pasta salad, I prefer to under cook it by a minute or two so that it is a bit more firm, but this is up to you.
  • Rinse with cold water and drain well.
  • Whisk together vinegar, olive oil, herbs, lemon juice, garlic, cayenne pepper, black pepper, and hot sauce in a medium bowl or large measuring cup.
  • Combine peppers, onion, and olives in a very large bowl.
  • Gently stir in tortellini.
  • Pour dressing over salad and lightly toss to coat pasta and vegetables.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight or for at least four hours.
  • Just before serving, sprinkle the cheeses on top.
