Arugula and Tortellini salad
May 14, 2015
One of my biggest pregnancy cravings this time around has been for salads, which is strange because I am definitely not a salad kind of person. But nowadays, I want to make them for dinner almost every night. The only problem is getting everyone else to agree to salad night (In James land, salads are appetizers and in Anouk land a bowl of leaves is ehhhh...). This tortellini salad pleases everyone, it's fresh and green enough for me but filling and substantial enough for everybody else.
Arugula and Tortellini Salad (very, very slightly adapted from Mama Miss)
16 oz bag frozen tortellini
1/3 cup pesto
1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
8 oz bag arugula
fresh Pecorino, shaved (the original recipe calls for parmesan, which is also delicious)
salt and pepper to taste
Cook and drain tortellini according to package instructions. In a bowl, combine pesto and yogurt and stir. Rinse and dry arugula and add to large bowl, add cooked tortellini and pesto/yogurt sauce. Toss to combine, top with cheese, add salt and pepper to taste.
