Cook Tortelloni:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

-
Prepare Dressing:
- In a medium bowl, toss the red pepper squares with your favorite dressing.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Assemble Skewers:
- On each skewer, thread one tortelloni, followed by a folded quarter-slice of salami, a piece of red pepper, and finally, an olive.
- Repeat this process for all skewers, ensuring ingredients are pushed close together and toward the pointed end, with the olive hiding the skewer tip.
-
Serve and Enjoy!
