Warm Tortellini Salad image

Delicious and simple--you can have this on the table in mere minutes. Use bottled vinaigrette or make your own. I used a double recipe of Bergy's Lemon Garlic Dijon Vinaigrette (recipe #96361)--it was fantastic and complimented the dish perfectly. I served topped with freshly ground black pepper and freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 (9 ounce) packages fresh cheese tortellini
0.5 (7 1/4 ounce) jar roasted red peppers, thinly sliced
2 cups broccoli florets (1 bunch)
1/2 cup dijon vinaigrette
1/2 lb havarti cheese, cut in 1/4-inch cubes (I think provolone would also be good here)

Steps:

  • Cook tortellini in a large pot of boiling water according to package directions; add the broccoli for the last 5 minutes of cooking (you will probably be adding it the same time you add the pasta).
  • Combine cheese, peppers and dressing in a large bowl.
  • Drain pasta and broccoli; add to the other ingredients in the bowl and toss.
