Categories     European

Time 1h20m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 ounces cooked multi-colored cheese tortellini

1 cup chopped pepperoni or 1 cup salami
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons your favorite salad seasoning (I use Salad Supreme Seasoning)

Steps:

  • Drain the precooked Tortellini and Bow Tie Pasta in a large colander.
  • Rinse both pastas under cold water until completely cooled.
  • Drain completely and set aside.
  • In a large salad bowl, toss together the Salad Pastas and Vegetables.

Tips:

  • To save time, cook the pasta and cool it in advance.
  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Fresh vegetables, quality cheese, and flavorful pepperoni will make a big difference.
  • Don't overcook the pasta. Al dente pasta is best for this salad.
  • Rinse the pasta with cold water after cooking to stop the cooking process and prevent it from becoming sticky.
  • Toss the salad gently to combine the ingredients without breaking up the pasta.
  • Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. If you chill it, bring it to room temperature before serving.

Conclusion:

Bow Tie Pepperoni Pasta Salad is a delicious and easy-to-make salad that is perfect for potlucks, picnics, or summer gatherings. It is a great way to use up leftover pasta and vegetables, and it is always a crowd-pleaser. With its vibrant colors and flavorful ingredients, this salad is sure to be a hit.
