Tortellini Salad

This was the salad I made over the weekend when Tawni came to town.  I had lots of requests for the recipe, so here you go!

Ingredients:

1 package of cheese tortellini, cooked, drained and cooled

1/2 green pepper, chopped

1 cup cherry tomoatoes, halved

1/4 cup red onion, chopped   

1/2 cup mozzerella cheese, cubed

1/2 cup salami, sliced thinly

While tortellini is cooking (follow directions on package-but make sure not to over cook your pasta), chop all your ingredients.   When pasta has cooled, combine. 

Dressing

6 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 cup olive oil

2 teaspoon dijon mustard

2 teaspoon dried basil

1 garlic clove, minced

salt and pepper

Combine ingredients and mix well. Pour over salad. The longer the salad marinates in the dressing, the better! Enjoy!
