This recipe makes about 6 servings so it's great for leftovers! I modified the original recipe a bit by using different olives feta and type of tortellini. I got this recipe from Two Peas And Their Pod a site that I love!! It's nice to see other couples cooking in the kitchen and enjoying being together. 

Mario and I made this recipe together which was fun because we haven't had a chance to cook together since he got his new job and works 40+ hours a week now so I don't see him that much. But we will try and cook together when we can! I hope you enjoy this recipe I think it will be great to pack for a lunch for work and you don't need to heat it up :)
