1 16-ounce package fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
Cook tortellini to desired doneness as directed on package; drain, rinse with cold water.
In very large bowl, combine tortellini, provolone cheese, corn, spinach, artichoke hearts, and 1 cup of the olives.
In small bowl, combine salad dressing, mustard and 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese; blend well. Pour dressing over salad; toss gently.
Top with remaining olives and Parmesan cheese. Cover; refrigerate 1 to 2 hours to blend flavors.
Just before serving, garnish with pimiento.
Poster's Notes:
It can be a first course, salad course, side dish, or whatever. I can eat it for a meal.
You can really use any kind of cheese.
