MEDITERRANEAN TORTELLINI SALAD

Mediterranean Tortellini Salad image

One of my childhood friends moved to Italy 20 years ago. During a recent visit to see her, I enjoyed a scrumptious salad made with tortellini and fresh vegetables. I fell in love with the dish and have been trying to recreate ever since. How'd I do? -Kelly Mapes, Fort Collins, Colorado
