Layered Spinach Tortellini Salad

Description

Not your standard 7-layer salad, this is always a big hit at pitch-ins and my wonderful daughter even requests it for her birthday dinner and other family functions. It has that ‘just right’ side dish flavor and lightness, while still being a special treat. If you use real bacon bits and bottled dressing, it’s even faster to have ready for drop-in guests! Add croutons or fresh Parmesan cheese to top if desired. Store in refrigerator and serve chilled.

Ingredients

  • ½ pound bacon, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch pieces
