In a large bowl, mix the olive oil, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, parsley, oregano, and salt. Place the cooked tortellini in the bowl, and toss to coat. Cover, and chill at least 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Place eggs in a saucepan with enough water to cover, and bring to a boil. Remove from heat, and allow eggs to sit in the hot water for 10 to 12 minutes. Drain, cool, peel, and quarter.
Gently mix the spinach, feta cheese, and onion into the bowl with the pasta. Arrange the quartered eggs around the salad to serve.

Answer 5

If we Greeks took so much time to write down the exact quantities we would never make a salad.Well,pasta is out of the question.Chop tomatoes,onions ,cucumber,green peppers ,add olives and feta cheese and then put salt olive oil and vinegar and that's it! you can add oregano on the cheese for more flavor.If you do not have olives or feta,make it without.It is still good ! Mix up everything and that's it!
