4 servings

  • 1 (9 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • ¼ cup ranch dressing
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 8 ounces cubed, cooked chicken
  • 2 ½ ounces fresh mozzarella, diced
  • ⅓ cup chopped cooked bacon
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste (optional)

Instructions

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 3 minutes. Run tortellini under cold water and drain. Store in the refrigerator until chilled, at least 30 minutes.
  • Stir ranch dressing and milk together in a large bowl. Add chilled pasta, cooked chicken, mozzarella, bacon, green onions, and parsley.
  • Toss to combine. Season with salt and pepper if desired.
