Jalapeno & Sweet Corn Tortellini Salad
To reminiscence on warmer days, I made an easy jalapeno sweet corn tortellini salad. Something about a cold pasta salad always reminds me of summer.
Ingredients
- 1 package cheese tortellini
- 2 jalapeno diced
- ½ cup red onion diced
- 1 cup sweet corn
- ½ cup carrot shredded
- 1 cup Garlic Expressions or your favorite garlic vinaigrette
Instructions
- Cook the tortellini according to the instructions on the package. Chop up the jalapeno and onion while the tortellini cooks. Drain the tortellini but do not rinse. Let rest in the strainer for a few minutes until a majority of the moisture is gone (make sure the water is out of the folds of the tortellini too!).
- In a large bowl, combine the warm tortellini, jalapenos, red onion, carrots and sweet corn. Pour in half of the dressing. Stir everything together then chill for at least one hour or until ready to serve. Right before serving, add the remaining dressing - a lot will be absorbed into the tortellini. Add as much dressing as needed to suit your tastes. Enjoy!
