Time 55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 11

¼ cup balsamic vinegar
¾ cup olive oil
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons Italian seasoning
1 (.7 ounce) package dry Italian salad dressing mix (such as Good Seasons®)
2 (8 ounce) packages dry cheese tortellini
2 medium zucchini, ends trimmed and halved lengthwise, or more to taste
2 medium yellow squash, ends trimmed and halved lengthwise, or more to taste
2 medium red onions, sliced into thick rounds
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Mix balsamic vinegar, olive oil, water, Italian seasoning, and Italian salad dressing mix together in a bowl for the dressing. Set aside.
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tortellini is tender and filling is hot, 10 to 12 minutes. Drain and cool under cold water. Set aside.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Brush zucchini, squash, and onions with olive oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Grill vegetables on the preheated grill until brown and soft, 7 to 10 minutes, making sure not to overcook squash. Remove from heat and let rest and cool for 10 minutes.
  • Chop cooled vegetables into medium-sized pieces. Place in a large bowl with tortellini and mix together. Add dressing and mix well. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve warm or refrigerate and serve cold the next day.

I'm allergic to cheese, so I omitted the Parmesan cheese from the recipe. It was still delicious!

This salad is way too bland. It needs more seasoning.

I'm not sure why this recipe calls for tortellini. It would be just as good with pasta or rice.
