This was a hit at our ladies luncheon! Very colorful; nice light, Italian taste. I used about 4-5 ounces of finely chopped fresh spinach, uncooked, a little more parmesan cheese than called for, a little more tortellini, and not nearly as much salad dressing (less than half of the 16 oz bottle). I used those little sweet 'grape' tomatoes and didn't cut them in half. It sat for a little bit (about an hour and a half) which I think was good. Let the tortellini soak up all the flavors. Thanks so much for this recipe - it's a keeper!

Delish! I brought it to our annual neighborhood "Blocktober Fest" and it was well recieved. I tripled the recipe, used one 16 oz. bottle of Wishbone Robusto Italian dressing, grape tomatoes (so there was no need to cut them) & added chunked salami. I also used only 5 oz. of fresh spinich just barely cooked, yum. Thanks Linda!
