Ingredients
- 9 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini
- 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
- ¾ cup Mozzarella pearls
- 2-3 TBSP thinly sliced basil to taste
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 1 TBSP balsamic vinegar
- 1 clove fresh garlic minced
- ⅓ tsp Italian seasoning
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- ⅛-¼ tsp black pepper
- balsamic glaze for topping (optional but tasty!)
Instructions
- Cook tortellini according to instructions. Prep and chop all other ingredients and set aside.
- Drain pasta in a colander and run under cold water to halt the cooking process and prevent soggy noodles.
- Add to a large bowl along with mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil.. Pour over the olive oil, balsamic vinegar and add the Italian seasoning, salt and pepper. Toss the salad well to combine.
- To make an easy balsamic-kissed dressing, combine olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Whisk well and pour over pasta salad.
- Chill until ready to serve or serve it up room temperature if you prefer! It's great both ways. Toss before serving and drizzle with a little balsamic glaze. Enjoy!
