DIRECTIONS

1. Cook tortellini according to package directions. Drain and rinse with cold water. In a sealable container, combine the tortellini, dressing, and seasoning. Refrigerate for 1-4 hours, stirring the contents a few times.
2. Gather remaining ingredients when ready to assemble skewers.
3. Thread the wooden skewer the following way:
   1. kalamata olive
   2. tomato
   3. spinach *fold leaves in half
   4. tortellini *there will most likely be leftover tortellini so grab tortellini directly from the container and put it on the skewer.
   5. spinach
   6. salami *fold slices into fourths
   7. mozzarella ball
   8. tortellini
   9. spinach
   10. salami
   11. green olive
   12. spinach
   13. tomato
   14. kalamata olive
4. Pull out the chilled Sauvignon & enjoy!
