Ingredients
| 72 | cheese tortellini (or fresh spinach and egg tortellini) |
| 6 | Tbsp minced fresh parsley |
| ½ | cup virgin olive oil |
| ½ | cup grated Parmesan cheese |
| ⅓ | cup fresh lemon juice |
| 3 | cloves garlic, pressed or minced |
| Salt and pepper to taste |
Directions
Prepare the tortellini according to package directions. Add a little fresh water to the cooked tortellini to keep them from sticking together. Thread 24 4-inch skewers with 3 tortellini each. Arrange the skewers on a platter and sprinkle with 2 Tbsp of the parsley.
In a small bowl, mix together the remaining parsley, oil, Parmesan, lemon juice, garlic, salt and pepper. If desired, puree the sauce in a blender for 1 minute. With a pastry brush, brush the sauce on the tortellini. Reserve the remaining sauce to dip the skewers into when serving.
