    Ummmmm, am interested in making this recipe, but when are you supposed to add the spinach? The recipe states "add the rest of the vegetables, except the spinach." It sounds good, but at what point does the spinach go in? - 6/16/11

    My husband and I LOVED this recipe and would definitely make again. My kids (7, 4 & 2), on the other hand, did not care for it. Actually, they loved the tortellini, but did not like the "salad". Perhaps not a first choice for those cooking for a family w/ young (i.e. picky) eaters. - 5/4/09
