Ingredients
- 8 ounces tortellini any variety, fresh
- 1/2 red onion chopped into 1 inch chunks
- 1/2 red bell pepper cut in 1/2 inch chunks
- 1/2 yellow bell pepper cut in 1/2 inch chunks
- 13 ounces Artichoke drained, canned quarters
- 1 cup edamame thawed, frozen
- 1 cup hearts of palm sliced
- 1/4 cup dill finely chopped, fresh
- 1 cup kalamata olives sliced in half, pitted
- 1/3 cup pine nuts toasting instructions below, toasted
- salt to taste, fresh cracked
- black pepper to taste, fresh cracked
dressing
- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 6 Tbsp red wine vinegar or more to taste
- 1/4 tsp oregano ground
- 1/4 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp dill dried
- 1/4 tsp thyme dried
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the tortellini gently in boiling salted water. I cook it a few minutes less than the package instructions state. Drain carefully and rinse in cold water, or put into an ice water bath to stop the cooking. Be gentle with the pasta, you don't want to tear it. Drain and set aside to dry on a clean dish towel. Then add them to a large salad bowl.
- Whisk together the dressing ingredients and taste to adjust anything. Set aside.
- Separate the layers of the onion chunks and add them to the salad bowl along with the peppers.
- Add the drained artichokes, edamame beans, hearts of palm, and dill to the bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Toss gently with enough dressing to moisten everything thoroughly.
- To serve, scatter the olives and pine nuts over the top of the salad.
- To toast pine nuts, put them in a skillet over medium heat. I like to add a tablespoon of olive oil, but you don't have to use it. Stirring constantly, heat the nuts until they turn golden.
