Step-by-Step Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the refrigerated cheese tortellini and cook according to package instructions, typically 3–5 minutes, until al dente. Drain and set on a paper towel-lined plate.
- In the same pot, add the fresh asparagus and cook for about 2 minutes until bright green and crisp. Transfer to an ice water bath to halt cooking. Drain well and set aside.
- Return the drained tortellini to a mixing bowl and pour in 2 tablespoons of reserved oil from sun-dried tomatoes. Toss gently to coat.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine seasoned tortellini, blanched asparagus, pesto, drained artichokes, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes. Add Kalamata olives and arugula. Stir gently to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Top with toasted pine nuts and shaved Parmesan. Serve immediately warm or chill for 15–30 minutes before serving.
