Instructions

1. Place tortelloni and ½ cup water in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and microwave for 3-5 minutes until pasta is tender. (Alternatively, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add tortelloni and cook 3-4 minutes until tender and floating.)
2. Drain the tortelloni, then rinse with cold water until cooled. Shake off excess water and pat dry with paper towels.
3. While pasta cooks, wash and dry produce. Halve the grape tomatoes. Quarter the mini cucumber lengthwise, then slice crosswise into ½-inch pieces. Trim and thinly slice the scallions.
4. Once tortelloni are dry, return them to the large bowl. Stir in the Greek vinaigrette, tomatoes, cucumber, scallions and feta. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired.
5. Divide the salad between bowls and serve at room temperature.
