In a medium bowl, gently toss the cooked tortellini with 1/2 cup of pesto sauce until evenly coated.
Cut each sundried tomato into 4-6 thin strips (depending on size).
Thread one tortellini onto a skewer, followed by a piece of sundried tomato. Repeat with another tortellini and tomato, ending with a third tortellini.
Repeat step 4 to create 12-15 skewers.
Refrigerate the skewers for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the skewers to chill before serving.
