Tzatziki Tortellini Pasta Salad
This pasta salad is an ultimate summer favorite because it’s so light, fresh, creamy & packed with flavor all at once! P.S. the longer you let it marinate in the fridge, the better it gets - perfect for a busy summer day!
This is the most perfect summer pasta dish for a few reasons: it’s so bright and fresh from the herbs and the lemon, it’s filling enough to be the main course in your summer dinner, its refreshing since it’s chilled, & it’s so quick and easy to make. To make this vegetarian, use a cheese tortellini - it’s just as good!
Another great thing about this dish is it gets better the longer it sits. So make it in the morning before you head out for the day, and enjoy when you come back home later! This recipe is on repeat for me this summer - so give it a try, I know you’ll love it too!
