We used to buy this salad in the deli of a local grocery store. This is just as good and much more economical! Cook time includes chilling time. Ingredients:
1 lb frozen cheese tortellini |
1 (1/2 ounce) package knorr pesto sauce mix |
1/2 cup water |
1/4 cup olive oil |
1/2 cup pine nuts, toasted |
1 cup mayonnaise (to taste) |
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (to taste) |
Directions:
1. Prepare pesto mix according to package directions. Do this first so the pesto will cool while the pasta is cooking.
2. Prepare frozen tortellini according to package directions.
3. Mix prepared pesto and tortellini together. Chill for 1/2 hour.
4. Add mayonnaise, parmesan and pine nuts.
5. Mix well and chill at least 2 hours or overnight. It's really best when made a day ahead.
