GREEK-STYLE SPINACH AND TORTELLINI SALAD
This is a filling salad as is but you can add in some cooked chicken breast strips if desired. Also I like to add in a few tablespoons of Parmesan cheese to the dressing but that is optional. Plan ahead the tortellini needs to chill with the dressing for a minimum of 4 hours or up to 24 hours. Do not use more than 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic or it will overpower the salad, or you can omit the garlic totally.

Steps:
- Cook the fresh tortellini in boiling salted water until just tender (about 3-4 minutes) drain and place in a large glass bowl.
- In another bowl combine the olive oil with lemon juice, red wine vinegar, parsley, oregano and Parmesan cheese (if using) season with salt and black pepper to taste; pour over the cooked tortellini, toss to coat, cover and chill for 4-24 hours.
- Before serving add in the fresh spinach, feta cheese and red onion slices; toss gently to coat.
- Mound the salad on a plate and arrange the sliced or quartered egg around the salad.
- Delicious!
