GREEK TORTELLINI SALAD

If big, bold salads centered around cheesy carbs are your thing, then this tortellini salad inspired by Greek flavors will become your new best friend. The salad can be served warm, at room temperature or chilled, and it's best when made a day (or even two) in advance so the flavors get a chance to really join forces. Ready to make it a meal? Fold in shredded rotisserie chicken and you'll have a guaranteed dinner winner.

  • Prepare the tortellini according to package instructions and set aside (you can also purchase the pre-cooked tortellini if preferred and skip this step).

  • Prepare all your salad ingredients and add them to a large bowl. Then add your pasta and dressing and fold it all together until well combined.

  • DRESSING: Combine all of the dressing ingredients in a mason jar. Shake thoroughly to combine, making sure no honey or Dijon is stuck on the bottom. Use a spoon to stir, and then shake again if needed. Store dressing in the fridge until ready to use. To serve, shake dressing again, right before adding to the salad, and then drizzle over salad.
  • TORTELLINI: Prepare the tortellini according to package directions. Make sure to generously salt the water (I add 1 teaspoon to every 4 cups of water). Don't forget to salt the pasta water or the whole salad will taste under-seasoned. Drain, rinse under cold water, and toss with 2 tablespoons of the prepared dressing. Set aside in the fridge to chill.
  • VEGGIES: Prepare the veggies: dice the red onion, cut the cucumbers into half moons, halve the cherry tomatoes, halve or slice the olives, crumble or cut the feta cheese into chunks.
  • ASSEMBLE: Toss together the completely cooled tortellini with all the veggies and add in some chopped fresh parsley if desired. Drizzle on the dressing to preference; you may not want to use it all (we use all the dressing on this salad!). Toss to combine and then add in the feta cheese. Toss again gently. Taste and adjust to personal preference adding any additional salt/pepper as needed.
