Ingredients
- 300 grams Cheese tortellini
- 150 grams Fresh spinach leaves
- 200 grams Cherry tomatoes
- 1 medium Cucumber
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 75 grams Kalamata olives
- 100 grams Feta cheese
- 2 large Eggs
- 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the cheese tortellini as per package instructions (typically 7–9 minutes). Once cooked, drain the tortellini and rinse under cold water to cool completely. Set aside.
Step 2
Meanwhile, place the eggs in a small pot of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 8–10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs. Once done, transfer the eggs to an ice bath, peel, and slice into halves or quarters.
Step 3
Wash and pat dry the spinach leaves. Halve the cherry tomatoes and dice the cucumber into small bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the red onion and cut the Kalamata olives in half, if desired.
Step 4
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked tortellini, spinach, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, olives, and feta cheese crumbles. Toss gently to combine.
Step 6
Pour the dressing over the salad and toss again to evenly coat the ingredients.
Step 7
Divide the salad into serving bowls or plates. Top each portion with slices of boiled egg for added protein and garnish with an extra sprinkle of oregano, if desired.
Step 8
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours if you prefer a chilled salad. Enjoy!
