This summer pasta dish is so refreshing, and light, that it is great for dinner or lunch, and can be served hot or cold.

It’s also easy and quick to prepare!

 

 

 

Ingredients

Tortellini (I use Buitoni mixed cheese)

Asparagus

Yellow Bell Pepper

Fresh Lemon

Olive Oil

Shredded Parmesan cheese

Dijon Mustard

Salt and Pepper

 

Start by putting a pot of water on the stove to boil

Then chop your asparagus and yellow bell pepper

Boil the tortellini

Make your dressing while the pasta is boiling

I used organic avocado/coconut blend oil

Dijon mustard

Salt

Lemon Zest

Fresh lemon juice

When the pasta is about halfway done, add the asparagus and bell pepper to cook with it

Drain the pasta and vegetables

 

Add the dressing and mix well

 

 

Serve in a bowl or plate

Top it off with parmesan cheese shreds

 

 

You could also add pine nuts to this recipe, or fresh garlic would be so yummy!

 

Make your own with the flavors you like best!
