Ingredients
- 1 pound cheese tortellini, cooked
- 1 jar sun dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
- 3 cups baby kale. coarsely chopped
- 1/4 cup crumbled cotija, (or feta!) cheese
- 3 tablespoons roasted and salted pepitas
- 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro
cilantro lime vinaigrette
- 3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 1/2 tablespoons honey
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
- 2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Boil the cheese tortellini according to the package instructions. Once drained, toss the tortellini with the sun dried tomatoes and kale. Drizzle on a few tablespoons of the vinaigrette and toss.
- Add in the cheese and pepitas. Drizzle more dressing if desired. Toss in some fresh cilantro. Taste and season with more salt and pepper if needed. Serve.
- This is amazing served warm or cold. I prefer it cold and it's even better after it sits for a few hours!
cilantro lime vinaigrette
- In a blender or food processor, combine the lime juice, honey, garlic, cilantro salt, pepper, pepper flakes and olive oil. Blend until combined and smooth (some pieces of cilantro may remain). Leftovers stay great in the fridge for a few days! Store it in a sealed container.
