vegetarianRecipe: Tortellini Salad

A very simple yet surprisingly tasty salad, perfect as a first course or on a picnic.

Yield 4 servings
Time 15 minutes
Tools
  • Saucepan
  • Wooden spoon
  • Strainer
  • Paper towel
  • Large bowl
Ingredients
  • 1 pound tortellini (can be filled with mushroom, spinach, cheese...), fresh or frozen
  • 1 c mayonnaise (regular or vegan)
  • ½ c peas, cooked and cooled
  • ½ c walnut pieces
Directions Cook the tortellini according to directions on package. Drain, then rinse with cold water for 1 minute. Dry with a paper towel.

Stir everything together and serve warm.

Notes I think this salad tastes best when it's warm. However, if the tortellini and peas are too hot, they will "melt" the mayonnaise.

If you have leftovers, keep them in the fridge until ½ hour before serving so that it comes up close to room temperature before serving.
