A key ingredient in Tortellini spinach salad is the tortellini. So... don't forget to add the noodles!Ingredients:
1 bag spinach (washed and dried)
1 container strawberries (washed stems picked out and strawberry sliced long)
*can substitute Mandarin oranges or craisins for the strawberries if you'd like.
1 container grape tomatoes
5 mushrooms (sliced)
4 hard boiled eggs (sliced)
1 purple onion (use 3/4 of it ~ sliced thin~ and the other 1/4 for poppy seed dressing)
* you can substitute green onion rather than purple onion if you'd like
1 pkg bacon (cooked crispy)
2 C shredded mozzarella cheese (don't put this on until ready to serve)
1 pkg fresh 3 cheese tortellini. (boil al dente~ or less but NOT more! drain well)
Wash and slice all ingredients as noted above. In a large bowl place spinach first. Then add all other veggies. Fruit, eggs, and bacon on top of that. Add cooked and cooled tortellini. Just before serving lightly toss and add the cheese.
This is divine with poppy seed dressing... recipe below.
