Guest guest Posted August 5, 2002 Report Share Posted August 5, 2002 Great for summer and perfect with BBQ! TORTELLINI, TOMATO AND PEA SALAD 1 pound frozen cheese tortellini 1 cup frozen peas 4 tbsp. prepared Italian or balsamic salad dressing, divided 2 large, fully ripened fresh tomatoes, cut in chunks (about 2-1/2 cups) 1 cup salad greens, such as watercress, arugula or mixed greens 1/2 cup diced sweet onion Cook tortellini according to package directions, adding peas during the last 30 seconds. Drain and place in bowl. Add 2 tbsp. of salad dressing; toss gently, then allow to cool. Just before serving, add tomato, salad greens, onion and remaining 2 tbsp. salad dressing. Toss gently. **We don't much care for fresh tomatoes (I know, we're freaks) so I used some drained canned tomatoes and that worked well. I also think you could do this just fine without the greens.
