Pesto Tortellini Salad image

We used to buy this salad in the deli of a local grocery store. This is just as good and much more economical! Cook time includes chilling time.

Time 3h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb frozen cheese tortellini
1 (1/2 ounce) package knorr pesto sauce mix
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted
1 cup mayonnaise (to taste)
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (to taste)

Steps:

  • Prepare pesto mix according to package directions. Do this first so the pesto will cool while the pasta is cooking.
  • Prepare frozen tortellini according to package directions.
  • Mix prepared pesto and tortellini together. Chill for 1/2 hour.
  • Add mayonnaise, parmesan and pine nuts.
  • Mix well and chill at least 2 hours or overnight. It's really best when made a day ahead.
