My family loves this so I always double the recipe! You can also add cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, artichoke hearts - well anything else you like. I didn’t have sherry when I made this so I used red wine vinegar * Much better with kalamata olives
Ingredients:
2 (16 ounce) packages frozen cheese tortellini
6 ounces black olives (drained, pitted and sliced) or 40 kalamata olives (drained, pitted and sliced)
4 ounces feta cheese (crumbled)

1 red pepper, cut into thin strips
1 yellow pepper, cut into thin strips
1 small red onion, chopped
1/2 cup seasoned rice wine vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon dried mint
1 teaspoon greek oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons seasoning salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons sherry wine
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
