Categories Salad

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

9 oz cheese tortellini (, frozen or refrigerated)
4-6 cups chopped romaine lettuce
1 tomato (, chopped or diced)
fresh parmasan cheese for topping (, optional)
1/2-1 cup Caesar dressing (, homemade or store-bought)
2 cups diced bread ((stale french baguette + ciabatta are my fav!) approx. 2-3 oz)
1 TBSP olive oil
salt and pepper (to taste)

Steps:

First make the croutons. This is a perfect way to use up older/stale bread. Preheat oven to 375°F. Add cubed bread to a bowl with oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well (using your hands works best to really work it into every piece) and spread on a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake on the center rack for 12-16 minutes or until golden and crisp. Times will vary slightly based on type and staleness of bread.
While the croutons cook, bring a small/medium pot of water to a boil and cook tortellini via package instructions. Approx 3 minutes for fresh and 4-5 min for frozen tortellini. Drain and rinse with cold water. Set aside.
In a large bowl, combine romaine, tortellini, chopped tomatoes, and optional parmesan cheese. Just before serving, drizzle with dressing and mix well to coat pasta and veggies. Top with croutons and enjoy!

TORTELLINI, STEAK, AND CAESAR

Tortellini, Steak, and Caesar image

A well-balanced meal in a bowl! Goes well with a nice slice of Italian or French bread. This is a FAVE to take to work or school for lunch with both my teenaged daughters and son! I vary how much meat, pasta, and salad I use depending on how many servings I need. If you want to make it in advance or have leftovers, don't add the dressing and croutons beforehand. Mix croutons right before packaging and send dressing on the side. I make this whenever I have leftover steak!

Preheat oven to 325°F and position a rack in the center of the oven. Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and arrange bread on baking sheet.

While bread bakes, make the dressing so flavors have time to come together. Whisk together garlic cloves, anchovy paste, lemon juice, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, mayonnaise, and Parmesan cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper and chill until ready to use.
