Once you've cooked the tortellini, the rest of this salad is a breeze to finish in the microwave. Sour cream provides the mild coating over this memorable medley of pasta, ham and broccoli shared Catherine Allan of Twin Falls, Idaho.
Ingredients:
1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated cheese tortellini
2 cups fresh broccoli florets
4 to 5 green onions, sliced
2 tablespoons butter
6 ounces fully cooked ham, julienned
1/2 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon dried basil
Directions:
1. Cook tortellini according to package directions. Meanwhile, in a 2-qt. microwave-safe dish, combine the broccoli, onions and butter. Cover and microwave on high for 2 minutes; stir. Cook 2 minutes longer or until broccoli is tender.
2. Drain tortellini; add to broccoli mixture. Stir in the ham, sour cream and basil. Cover and microwave on high for 30-90 seconds or until heated through. Let stand for 2 minutes before serving. Yield: 6-8 servings.
