TORTELLINI ANTIPASTO KEBABS

I made these for my annual Academy Awards party last year! They were a hit! A bit tedious and time consuming, but you make them the day before you serve. Not exactly sure on the actual servings, but 48 kebabs sounds about right.

Yield 48 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

1 package frozen cheese tortellini
1 package sliced pepperoni
1 jar black olives
1 jar pitted green olives
1 (8 ounce) package cheese (of your choice, I use the white pepperjack for a bit of heat)
1 bottle Italian dressing
1 box toothpick (the kind with the handles)

Steps:

Prepare frozen tortellini according to package directions.
Drain and cool.
Get out a plastic bowl to store the kebabs.
Cut your block of cheese into small cubes.
On each toothpick, place 1 tortellini, 1 black olive, 1 block of cheese, 1 slice of pepperoni (may cut in half or fold if too large), and 1 green olive.
You can vary the order in which you place the ingredients.
Place all of the toothpicks in the container and pour the Italian dressing over all.
Cover and refrigerate overnight to marinate.
When ready to serve, take them out of the container and lay them on a pretty lettuce lined platter.

Time 30m

Yield 24 skewers

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

Kosher salt
4.5 ounces packaged spinach and cheese tortellini
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan
Freshly ground black pepper
24 ciliegine mozzarella balls, from an 8-ounce container
24 multi-color cherry tomatoes
24 pitted Castelvetrano olives
24 peppadew peppers
24 slices soppressata salami
12 slices pistachio mortadella, cut in half
24 fresh basil leaves

Steps:

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain the tortellini and add to a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, Parmesan and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss to combine and set aside.
Add the mozzarella balls, cherry tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a small bowl. Mix to combine and set aside.
To assemble the skewers, thread one of each onto a skewer: tortellini, mozzarella ball, cherry tomato, olive and peppadew pepper. And then add a piece of soppressata folded into a size approximately as big as the other ingredients, then a half piece of mortadella also folded to match the size of the other ingredients and finally with a folded basil leaf. Make more skewers using the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
