Tortellini Primavera image

This is a quick pasta salad that is kicked up a notch by using tortellini instead of regular pasta. It is great for a cook-out or potluck because it doesn't include mayonnaise.

Time 4h30m

Yield 5

Number Of Ingredients 8

20 ounces refrigerated cheese tortellini
2 cups halved cherry tomatoes
1 ½ cups bite-sized broccoli florets
1 cup diced yellow bell pepper
¾ cup shredded Parmesan cheese
6 ounces pepperoni sausage, cubed
1 cup Italian-style salad dressing (such as Newman's Own®)
¼ cup Italian-style salad dressing (such as Newman's Own®)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook tortellini at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite and filling is warmed through, 5 to 7 minutes; drain.
  • Stir cooked tortellini, tomatoes, broccoli, yellow bell pepper, Parmesan cheese, and pepperoni together in a bowl. Pour in 1 cup Italian dressing and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. If salad looks dry, stir in an additional 1/4 cup Italian dressing before serving.
