TORTELLINI PUTTANESCA

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet.
• When the oil is hot, add the garlic, anchovies or anchovy paste, red pepper flakes, olives, capers and tomatoes, then saute just until the tomatoes start to give off liquid, about 2 minutes.
• Add the wine, broth and tortellini and simmer until the tortellini are fully cooked and the broth begins to thicken, 5 to 6 minutes.
• Stir in the spinach until it has wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Finish with grated Parmesan.

TORTELLINI SKEWERS

• Mix together the olive oil, pesto and vinegar in a bowl.
• On small skewers, thread 1 tortellini, 1 cherry tomato and 1 mozzarella cube per skewer. Lay the skewers on a platter and lightly drizzle the dressing over
• Serve immediately or refrigerate. Sprinkle on the minced parsley just before serving.

ANTIPASTI SKEWERS

Steps:

• Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the tortellini according to package directions. Drain the tortellini and add to a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, Parmesan and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss to combine and set aside.
• Add the mozzarella balls, cherry tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a small bowl. Mix to combine and set aside.
• To assemble the skewers, thread one of each onto a skewer: tortellini, mozzarella ball, cherry tomato, olive and peppadew pepper. And then add a piece of soppressata folded into a size approximately as big as the other ingredients, then a half piece of mortadella also folded to match the size of the other ingredients and finally with a folded basil leaf. Make more skewers using the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
