Tortellini Skewer Recipe

Serves 4

Ingredients:

• Skewers, 6” each
• 1 (9oz) pkg. Cheese tortellini
• 1 10 oz pkg Cherry tomatoes
• 1 (8 oz) pkg Fresh Mozzarella balls
• 1 3 oz pkg Pepperoni, sliced
• 1 (15 oz) can Large black olives, drained
• Balsamic glaze for drizzle
• 1/4 cup Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)

Instructions:

• Cook the tortellini according to package directions, being careful not to overcook. (It will fall apart when skewered if overcooked; you may need to slightly undercook it.)
• Drain and run cold water over the tortellini to stop the cooking and to chill the pasta.
• Thread 1 tortellini followed by a tomato, mozzarella ball, pepperoni slice, and an olive, and repeat until the skewer is full.
• Place the skewers on a serving platter or tray.
• Drizzle the skewers with the balsamic glaze.
