@dontgobaconmyheart_: Day 1 | 20 days of 20 minute Summer dinners 😋 To kick off the series we’re going in with a salad worthy of dinner! Really hearty, packed with flavour and so easy to make. Hope you love it! Chris x SUN DRIED TOMATO TORTELLINI PASTA SALAD | Serves 4-6 INGREDIENTS ➡️SALAD 2x 300g/10.5oz packs of Tortellini* 1x 280g/9.8oz jar of Sun Dried Tomatoes in Oil 150g / 5.3oz Baby Plum or Cherry Tomatoes 120g / 4oz Feta 50g / 1.8oz pitted Black Olives 1 small bunch of Fresh Basil (30g/1oz) 1 small Red Onion (pick the smallest one in the bag) ➡️DRESSING 120ml / 1/2 cup Sun Dried Tomato Oil from the jar (top up with Extra Virgin Olive Oil if needed) 60ml / 1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar 1 tsp EACH: Dijon Mustard, Honey 3/4 tsp Dried Oregano 1/4 tsp EACH: Salt, Black Pepper, Chilli Flakes (optional for a dash of spice) METHOD 1️⃣In a small bowl or jug, measure out 1/2 cup / 120ml of the sun dried tomato oil (top up with extra virgin olive oil if needed). Whisk in the remaining ingredients until well-combined, then finely dice the onion and stir it through the dressing. Leave as you prep everything else and whisk again just before needed. 2️⃣Quarter the baby plum tomatoes, dice the sun dried tomatoes and slice the olives. Finely dice the basil and finely dice or crumble the feta. 3️⃣Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook for a minute or so less than the package instruction (it should be al dente). Drain and gently rinse in cold water until completely cool. 4️⃣In a large serving bowl, toss the tortellini with the fillings and dressing until it's all evenly combined. Serve and enjoy! *To film I used a mix of Prosciutto Cudo and Smoky Chorizo & Bacon, both worked nicely! You can use your best judgement to suit what you think would pair with the other ingredients (cheese or chicken based tortellini would both be great). I find the package instructions overestimate the timings slightly. Just keep in mind you don't want it too soft otherwise it'll break apart when you rinse and toss it. **I like to add the onion in with the dressing just to allow it to lightly pickle as it rests. If you'd prefer, you can just add it in fresh to the salad.

I’d do tiny mozzarella balls instead of feta
