This is truly such a super simple salad that packs in so much flavor! It's a breeze to throw together and can easily be turned into a main entree by adding some chopped rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken to make it more hearty.

You'll love the lemon, poppy seed, and blueberry combo here. It may not be the first thing you'd think to add to salad, maybe perhaps more along the lines of a baked treat, but it works exceptionally well for a salad too.

Its sweet, tart, fruity, nutty, cheesy flavor fusion is completely crave-able, and it's bursting with fresh, nutritious goodness in every bite.

It's a different salad for a change, that's set to satisfy every tastebud and I'd say will likely even brighten your day!

Tortellini, arugula, bacon, tomato, bell pepper salad.

Who doesn't love a abundantly cheesy tortellini dish drenched in a rich, creamy tomato sauce or smothered with fresh pesto? Those are family favorites but during these really hot months it's so nice to have something like this that's served at room temperature not steaming hot.

This tortellini pasta salad doubles as a weeknight dinner or a summer lunch for a picnic at the park or a barbecue cook out.

Its blend of flavors pair so harmoniously together with it's cheesy, bacon, tomato combo and the arugula, bell pepper and lemon for added flavor enhancement. Plus the chewy, crisp, and soft textures of each layered bite compliment each other beautifully.

Then to highlight it all let's not forget the final finish of parmesan. And please not the shelf stable kind, if you really want to elevate the dish use high quality fresh ingredients.
