Greek Tortellini Salad image

If big, bold salads centered around cheesy carbs are your thing, then this tortellini salad inspired by Greek flavors will become your new best friend. The salad can be served warm, at room temperature or chilled, and it's best when made a day (or even two) in advance so the flavors get a chance to really join forces. Ready to make it a meal? Fold in shredded rotisserie chicken and you'll have a guaranteed dinner winner.

GREEK-STYLE SPINACH AND EGG TORTELLINI SALAD



Greek-Style Spinach and Egg Tortellini Salad image

I have made this many times to serve to guests in the summer season, it is delicious! You can adjust all amounts to taste and double the recipe to serve more than six. Plan ahead the tortellini needs to chill in the dressing for a minumum of 4 hours or up to 24 hours. Don't be tempted to use more than 1 teaspoon (or less) of fresh garlic, or the garlic flavor will overpower the salad, you can use garlic powder in place of fresh, if you are not a garlic-lover then omit completely, this dressing is good even without the garlic! If you want to serve more dressing on the side, then prepare two separate dressings and use one to marinate the tortellini in and one to serve on the side.

This salad is going to be in the Allrecipes Hall of Fame one day! My friend Ali made this refreshing summer salad for me, which is even better a few days later. Tortellini, a great vinaigrette, baby spinach, and feta. If you like balsamic vinegar, it's a must to add into the vinaigrette. Bon appetit!

GREEK-STYLE SPINACH AND TORTELLINI SALAD



Greek-Style Spinach and Tortellini Salad image

This is a filling salad as is but you can add in some cooked chicken breast strips if desired. Also I like to add in a few tablespoons of Parmesan cheese to the dressing but that is optional. Plan ahead the tortellini needs to chill with the dressing for a minimum of 4 hours or up to 24 hours. Do not use more than 1 teaspoon minced fresh garlic or it will overpower the salad, or you can omit the garlic totally.
