  • 3/4 cup purchased Italian salad dressing
  • 1 oz. (1/4 cup) shredded fresh Parmesan cheese

Steps

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Meat-filled tortellini can be used in place of the cheese-filled variety. Red or green bell pepper can be used instead of the yellow. One cup coarsely chopped tomatoes can also be used if you don’t have cherry tomatoes.
  • tip 2
    Cook the pasta the night before and toss with a teaspoon of oil. Store in a resealable plastic bag in the refrigerator until you’re ready to assemble the salad.
