Here is a recipe that is just a start, a suggestion. You can dip tortellini in just about any creamy salad dressing, pesto, salsa. etc.. It is just transportation for the dip. For something really different try warm browned butter.
Ingredients:
- 1 package fresh or frozen tortellini (like tri-colored five cheese)
- Dominico’s Dressing
- Magnifico Marinara Dressing
- toothpicks
Directions:
- Cook tortellini according to package directions (do NOT overcook, best to undercook a bit).
- Rinse under cold water.
- Drain well on paper towels.
- Transfer dressings to small serving bowls.
- To serve, arrange tortellini on serving platter with toothpicks.
- Dip in dressings.
To be really fancy:
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
- Add tortellini in batches to oil, cook and stir 3-5 minutes or until lightly golden.
- Drain on paper towels.
This can also be serves by sticking a toothpick in the tortellini and then sticking the toothpick in a head of cabbage on a plate.
Serves: How many tortellini in a pound?
