Ingredients
Scale
- 12 oz tortellini
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 cup mozzarella balls
- 1/2 cup black olives, sliced
- 1/2 cup salami, diced
- 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh basil for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by cooking the tortellini according to package instructions. Once they’re perfectly al dente, drain them and let them cool while you prepare the other ingredients.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooled tortellini, cherry tomatoes, mozzarella balls, sliced black olives, diced salami, and thinly sliced red onion.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, red wine vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dressing over the tortellini salad and toss gently to ensure everything is evenly coated.
- You can serve the salad immediately or refrigerate it for up to 2 hours before serving. Garnish with fresh basil.
Notes
For a creamier salad, consider adding a dollop of pesto or Parmesan cheese. Substitute salami with roasted vegetables for a vegetarian version.
