I have been reading a lot of blogs lately where they share their recipe ideas and I am loving trying them. So I thought why not share some meals from my kitchen here as well!
I've been busting out some old summer recipes as of late...and I wanted to share one I discovered last summer. I'm pretty sure I made it some changes to it...but I was going for easier ways to implement this into a nightly meal or a lunchtime snack that's easy to take to work. Here are my ingredients:
One bag frozen Cheese tortellini
Half a red onion diced up
Two cups of frozen peas
A handful of cherry tomatoes, cut in half
Bottle of Kraft Zesty Italian Dressing
Bring tortellini and peas to a boil in a pot of water - I follow package directions for the tortellini and just toss the peas in together (you can also just throw the peas in frozen and they will stay crisp)
While it's boiling, dice up your red onion and halve your tomatoes, set aside
Strain noodles and peas
Rinse with cold water
Place in bowl (I use a tupperware style bowl with a lid for ease of storage later)
Mix noodles and peas with onion and tomato
Coat to taste with Zesty Italian Dressing
Let set in fridge until chilled before serving...but remember to taste test as you cook...otherwise what's the fun in that???
Enjoy! What are some of your favorite summer recipes? I'd love to hear them!
