Summertime Tortellini Pasta Salad


Summertime Tortellini Pasta Salad

19 oz. bag cheese filled tortellini (I prefer the tri-colored)
Small Container Grape or Cherry Tomatoes, cut in half
4 oz. can sliced black olives
1/2 large yellow bell pepper, diced
1/3 c. red onion, diced
1 c. Zesty Italian Dressing
3/4 c. freshly grated Parmesan
2 Tbsp. fresh parsley, minced

Cook cheese tortellini according to package directions.  Drain and rinse under cold water.

Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.  Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours until chilled through.  

Enjoy!!

  2. Saw this on Facebook from The Country Cook =) I have a friend who would bring this salad to our annual camping trip. Every year we'd snack on this as we rode down the river. I'm thrilled to finally have the recipe. Thanks, Country Cook, for posting this - I recognized it instantly!!
