Spinach Tortellini Salad
My sister-in-law Jessica makes the most amazing salads. At nearly every family gathering, she shows up with a different, but equally amazing salad.
I am constantly asking her for the recipes because making salads are surely not my forte! I used to think that salads were limited to lettuce, tomatoes, and ranch.
Talk about boring!
