Greek Tortellini salad is the perfect summer side made with cheese tortellini, tomatoes, cucumbers, olives, red onion, crumbled feta cheese, and a homemade Greek dressing.

Greek Tortellini Salad

From the recipe collection of Tara Ippolito

Summer is in full swing and you need this Greek tortellini salad for your next cookout.

I made this for my families 4th Of July party and everyone loved it. It was a little something different from the pasta salads that I usually serve.

My Mothers Famous Tortellini Salad has been our go to summer party side dish since as long as I can remember. It’s absolutely delicious with more of an Italian spin.

But, it sure is nice to change it up every once in a while. This was the perfect recipe to do that, too.

All the flavors of a Greek salad mixed with the tortellini pasta were just a fresh and refreshing combination.

This recipe would be perfect to bring to any summer BBQ, picnic or any warm weather event that you can think of.

I hope you give this recipe a try. If you do, I know you’ll love it just as much as my family and friends do. ?

Greek Tortellini Salad Variations

I like this recipe for tortellini salad made just the way it is, but here are some ways to change it up if you’d like to.

  • Greek Dressing- Save a step in this recipe and buy bottled Greek dressing if you’d like.
  • Tortellini- refrigerated or frozen tortellini would both be OK to use here.
  • Cheese- Feta cheese is the best choice for this but be sure to get the cheese in a block and break the pieces off yourself. It’s not the same as the stuff that comes pre crumbled. Trust me, you’ll notice the difference.
