Garden Veggie Tortellini Pasta Salad



Ingredients


  1. 9 oz fresh cheese tortellini
  2. 9 oz fresh spinach + cheese tortellini
  3. 1 green bell pepper
  4. 1 red bell pepper
  5. 1/2-1 cup corn (steamed from frozen/fresh or canned)
  6. 1 heaping cup grape/cherry tomatoes
  7. 4 oz cheddar cheese cubed
  8. parsley and/or green onion to garnish (optional but delish!)


 EASY PEASY ITALIAN DRESSING:
  1. 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
  2. 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
  3. 2 TBSP Italian seasoning blend (Mrs. Dash is my favorite!)
  4. 1/2 TBSP garlic powder plus extra to taste
  5. 1/2 tsp sea salt
  6. 1/4 tsp black pepper


Instructions


  • Bring a medium-large pot to boil over high heat and cook tortellini per package instructions. 
  • Tortellini Tip: when cooking fresh chilled ravioli, start with a rolling boil on high, add pasta, then decrease heat to medium-low simmer to prevent pasta breakage.
  • While your pasta cooks, whisk together your dressing by combining the ingredients and whisk (or pop it in a mason jar and shake) until well combined. Ingredients will separate naturally, simply whisk/shake again before pouring and you're good to go!
  • Chop your peppers and tomatoes and prep your corn. If using canned corn, simply drain and rinse. Fresh or frozen will require a quick steam and you're good to go!
  • Once tortellini is tender and al-dente, strain in a colander and rinse briefly with cold water. Pour into a large bowl and add your veggies, cheese, parsley.

THE BEST EVER GRILLED CHICKEN MARINADE

Gambar
Ingredients ½ cup oil ½ cup balsamic vinegar ¼ cup soy sauce ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce 1/8 cup lemon juice ¾ cup brown sugar 2 Tbsp fresh rosemary 2 tbsp Dijon mustard 1 tsp ground black pepper 2 tsp garlic powder 6 chicken breasts or 3.5 lb chicken Instructions Combine all ingredients in a large ziplock bag. Add chicken to the bag and place the closed ziplock bag in a large bowl and put in the fridge. (The bowl will keep it from making a huge mess in case the bag leaks) Marinade for at least 8 hours or overnight and grill! Enjoy! (I do not add any extra salt to my chicken marinade because salt will dry the chicken out. ALWAYS salt the chicken AFTER you grill it to ensure. It will need a good bit of salt after it is done) Source: https://www.auntbeesrecipes.com/2017/06/the-best-ever-grilled-chicken-marinade.html
