Tortellini Salad

This is an old favorite of ours. I got this recipe from a friend at work and it’s now become our most used picnic dish. Because its vinegar based it will say good without having to keep it in a cooler. We recently took this hiking with us and after being in a backpack for three hours it was super yummy. It’s best to make this the night before because the favors will blend together better but you can throw this together in under 10 minutes if needed. If you’re doing it the night before you don’t even need to cook the tortellini, but if you’re serving immediately you’ll need to thaw the tortellini or boil it in some water to warm it up.

Servings: Two generous portions
Weight Watchers Points: 10pts for 1/2 recipe

2 cups frozen cheese tortellini (about half the bag)
2-3 roma tomatoes, diced
3/4 cup of Corn (or a small can)
1/3 cup reduced fat Feta cheese
1/3 cup Ken’s Lite Caesar dressing
Fresh basil and oregano, chopped to taste (fresh is best but if you don’t have fresh dried will work)
Salt & Pepper to taste

Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl. Refrigerate over night if possible.
