Tortelini pasta and spinach salad

 Tortellini Pasta and Spinach Salad





Here is a very simple, basic recipe that I recommend.  Sorry it took me a while to post and you may consider it more of a summer dish, but I promise that there will be several delicious fall recipes coming up soon! Yes, I created this recipe, but trust me that it's worth trying. All you need:

1 package of spinach and cheese tortellini pasta. (I used the Barilla brand, which may be harder to find, but I bought it at Target.)

1 package of fresh spinach, roughly chopped

1/4-1/2 bottle of Italian dressing

1/2 C Parmesan cheese

Cook pasta according to package (the brand I used took 10 minutes). Drain, and let cool.

Mix pasta with dressing, cheese, and spinach, then voila! You've got yourself a tasty pasta. Keep in mind that proportions with the ingredients can be changed according to your taste. I personally like less dressing but some people may enjoy more. This serves about 5-6 medium-sized salads
