This is excellent! Made as stated but had to pull spinach out so I think next time I will only used fresh spinach. Did not care for the olives so definitely wont add those again. But this was my first time to ever have tortellini and since I had cooked spaghetti sauce the night before I tried it with it first and wasn't impressed. The italian dressing was perfect with it!! Will definitely experiment with it in the future!

Easy, attractive and healthy! I used fresh baby spinach, like many others, chopped and not cooked. I doubled the recipe and used tri-colored tortellini. Taking it to a picnic tonight - it will probably be even better after a couple of hours in the fridge. Thanks for posting this one, it's a keeper!

Wow was this ever amazing! I made it a month ago and forgot to comment, but I will now! I was in Italy when I made this, and there is no cheese-filled tortellini there- in fact my boyfriend laughed and said "Cheese filled tortellini?! What is that!" So we used Prosciutto filled tortellini, skipped the spinach completely because the store's spinach supply looked really bad and dead...also I wasn't into frozen spinach and didn't want to use lettuce! We used also sliced black and green olives, and as for the Italian Style Dressing- i don't know about you but REAL Italian style dressing is just Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar, maybe some lemon juice! So I put on the parmesan, tomatoes, olives, olive oil, and OH MY GOD was this ever AMAZING!!!! Now I'm home and I want to make this for my parents and brothers!!!

Great recipe! I prefer to serve this heated though. I've never been a fan of cold pasta.

Instead of seasoning with salt and pepper I used salad supreme. Soooo good!

Made this last night! I love it! I doubled the tortellini, and since I didn't have any parmesan cheese like I thought I did, I used shredded cheddar. I also omitted the olives and tomatoes since I don't like either. I microwaved the chese and spinach together to melt it, then mixed in the tortellini and added the italian dressing. It was delicious and I'm enjoying the leftovers for lunch today! I'm sure it would be even better with a little chopped onion and/or garlic!

Fabulous pasta salad! It's simple and delicious! It's so easy to put together, yet tastes like something you'd find at a gourmet deli. I used fresh tortellini and fresh spinch vs. frozen. I also threw in some roasted red peppers along with the cherry tomatoes and olives. I used shredded Parmesan and for the dressing I chose "Nonna's Tuscan Salad Dressing" from this site. This recipe is a definite keeper!
