What could be better than a caprese salad? One that has plump, savory, cheesy tortelloni in it!

Preparation
1

• Place tortelloni and ½ cup water (1 cup for 4 servings) in a large, microwave-safe bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap; microwave for 2 minutes (3 minutes for 4 servings). Without removing plastic wrap, carefully shake bowl several times to toss tortelloni; microwave until pasta is tender, 2-4 minutes more. (No microwave? No problem! Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add tortelloni to pot. Reduce to a low simmer and cook until tender and floating to the top, 3-4 minutes.)

2

• While tortelloni are cooking, wash and dry produce. Halve tomatoes. Dice mozzarella into ½-inch pieces.

3

• In a small bowl, combine pesto and sour cream; taste and season with salt and pepper.

4

• Drain tortelloni; rinse with cold water until cooled. Shake off excess water; pat dry with paper towels. Wash and dry bowl. Return tortelloni to same bowl. Add tomatoes, mozzarella, and creamy pesto; stir to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper.

5

• Divide pasta salad between bowls and serve.
