Ingredients
Method
- Cook the Tortellini:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the cheese tortellini and cook until al dente, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and let it cool.
- Prepare the Salad Ingredients:
- While the tortellini cools, cube the fresh mozzarella and dice the ripe tomatoes. Tear the basil leaves gently to release their aroma.
- Assemble the Salad:
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked tortellini, mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil. Drizzle with olive oil and balsamic glaze. Season with salt and pepper.
- Toss and Serve:
- Gently toss the salad to ensure all ingredients are well-coated. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge before serving.
Notes
Feel free to add more vegetables like arugula or roasted peppers for extra flavor and color.
If you prefer a stronger taste, you can add a splash of lemon juice or extra balsamic glaze.
