Italian Cold Cut Tortelloni Salad


I created this today because I just thought something cold would be best tonight to have with dinner, as it is almost 100 degrees here in Parkville Maryland today. This will be best prepared the night before, or early in the morning so everything can marinate.

 1 package of three cheese tortelloni from Costco cooked and drained, or any large bag any brand, but this is what I used.


2 large tomatoes chopped

17 slices of mini pepperoni cut in quarters ( we use turkey pepperoni)

17 slices of mini salami cut in quarters

1/2 chopped red onion

1/2 cup frozen peas

1/2 cup chopped, or sliced pepperoncini 

1 heaping tablespoon of hots

1 heaping tablespoon of pesto 

1 cup of marinated mushrooms, cut in quarters 

3 marinated artichoke hearts cut up

1 cup of mozzarella cheese shredded ( or provolone if you can find it or shred it yourself)

1/2 cup of Olive Garden lite Italian dressing

Mix all in a big bowl gently mix all ingredients, pepper to taste.

Place in a container and place in the fridge for at least 2 hours, then gently stir, you may want to add more Olive Garden dressing if you feel it needs it. Place back in the Fridge.

Garnish with chopped Basil leaves if you have any.

NOTE:  You can add what ever you normally put on your cold cuts. 

What a yummy dish, and this is perfect to take to a cook-out or a party. It's very flavorful, and the Tortelloni only takes 2 minutes to cook, so be sure not to over cook or they will fall apart.
