Step: 1

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil. Stir in spinach and three-cheese tortellini and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through but is still slightly firm, 10 to 11 minutes.

Step: 2

Drain well, and allow tortellini to cool.

Step: 3

Toss together the tortellini, grape tomatoes, artichoke hearts, olives, red onion, carrots, and dressing in a large bowl.

Step: 4

Cover and refrigerate until chilled, at least 3 hours or overnight.
