EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

For a change of pace, try using ravioli in place of tortellini. Or use pasta filled with Italian sausage, basil and cheese or chicken and prosciutto. You can use tortelloni, also known as tortellini's larger cousin, for this flavorful pasta salad.

Great for a picnic! I substituted baby spinach for the lettuce & used 3 cheese tortellini instead of chicken for my vegitarians. It fed more than 8 people & got raves all around.

THis has become a staple in our house. Its an excellent recipe to wow a guest or bring to a picnic. I like that I can prepare it ahead of time and its ready to go at dinner. I put in cut up cooked chicken and served as a meal! My husband always tells me that "i know how to treat him right" when this goes on the plate. We are also not good left over people, but he eats this leftover~
