CHEESE*****Tortellini Skewers

By Unblond1

25/12/13 - These went over really well and they are easy and very tasty. They'd make a great summer appetizer too. I put two tortellini, one tomato and one mini bocconcini on each skewer, which was perfect.

Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons jarred pesto
• 2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
• pinch of salt
• try a pinch of hot pepper flakes too
• 2 packages tri-colour cheese tortellini, cooked and cooled
• 2 pints cherry tomatoes
• 12 ounces fresh mozzarella, cubed
• 1/4 cup minced fresh parsley (didn't bother)
