Greek Tortellini Salad: Tomatoes, Avocados, Cucumbers

  • Recipe Submitted by on

Category: Side Dishes, Salads

 Ingredients List

  • ~~ Salad dressing ~~
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper (or more, to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt (or more, to taste)
  • ~~ Salad ~~
  • 2 and 1/2 cups cooked and cold tortellini (1 package - oz)
  • 2 cups slices tomatoes
  • 1 whole cucumber, sliced
  • 1 avocado, cubed
  • 1 cup sliced red bell peppers
  • 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 ounces (1/2 can) finely chopped black olives
  • 1/4 small red onion, thinly sliced

 Directions

Salad dressing:

In a medium bowl, whisk together all salad dressing ingredients, except salt. Add just enough salt to suit your tastes - should be about 1/4 teaspoon of salt.

Salad:

In a large bowl, combine all salad ingredients. Add just enough of the dressing to the salad to coat and toss. Don't add all the salad dressing at once - you will probably use only about half of the salad dressing. At this point, your salad is ready to serve.

Or, you can cover and chill the salad for a couple of hours or refrigerate overnight. Also chill (or refrigerate) the remaining dressing. Before serving, let the salad (and the remaining dressing) sit at room temperature for some time because olive oil in the dressing would've have solidified in the refrigerator - let it liquify. Add more of the reserved dressing to the salad, if necessary.
