This is a quick pasta salad that is kicked up a notch by using tortellini instead of regular pasta. It is great for a cook-out or potluck because it doesn't include mayonnaise.

Ingredients

  • ounces refrigerated cheese tortellini: 20 piece
  • cherry tomatoes: 2 cups (halved)
  • ½ cups bite-sized broccoli florets: 1 piece
  • yellow bell pepper: 1 cup (diced)
  • Parmesan cheese: 0.75 cup (shredded)
  • ounces pepperoni sausage: 6 piece (cubed, optional)
  • Italian-style salad dressing (such as Newman's Own®): 1 cup (optional)
  • Italian-style salad dressing (such as Newman's Own®): 0.25 cup (optional)

  2. Stir cooked tortellini, tomatoes, broccoli, yellow bell pepper, Parmesan cheese, and pepperoni together in a bowl. Pour in 1 cup Italian dressing and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours. If salad looks dry, stir in an additional 1/4 cup Italian dressing before serving.
