Easy Tortellini Italian Pasta Salad Directions:
Cook tortellini to al dente according to package directions. Rinse with cold water and drain.
Add cooked tortellini to a large mixing bowl. Pour half the dressing onto the cooked pasta, this will help to ensure the tortellini doesn’t stick to each other.
Add olives, pepperoni, red onion, cucumber, pepperoncini, and tomatoes in a large mixing bowl or serving bowl.
Pour remaining dressing over salad and stir to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
When you are ready to serve, add shredded parmesan. Toss until well combined. Keep in mind the tortellini will soak up most of the dressing. You may add additional dressing just before serving.
Serve cold. Store leftovers in an air tight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
