The Best Pasta Salad
If you’re looking for ways to enhance your pasta salad recipe, this Confetti Pasta Salad is it. We’ve upgraded traditional pasta for fresh Olivieri® 3 Formaggi Rainbow Tortellini enriched with spinach and tomato, and filled with an incredible trifecta blend of ricotta, Romano and Parmesan.
Perfect for an appetizing and vibrant blend of colours, the cheesy rainbow tortellini makes a stellar base for this epic pasta salad. And, as the pasta is fresh it cooks up in just 6-8 minutes. For best results, once it’s cooked, make sure to drain and rinse with cold water before tossing on our specialty pesto sauce to not waste one bit.
Our secret to giving this pasta salad over the top flavour is first coating the tortellini in our Olivieri® Basil & Cheese Pesto and then mixing with the other ingredients. Try it out in your next pasta salad recipe like a Rainbow Tortellini Salad!
