Easy Tortellini Salad

---

This whole salad comes together in the time it takes to boil water. It's really flavorful and inexpensive, perfect for a summer day when you don't want to turn on the oven.

---

Steps

---

Cook the pasta until its al dente , dont over cook it or the stuffing will fall out and the pasta will be mushy.

---

While the pasta cooks , stir together all of the remaining ingredients.

---

If youre adding veggies that need a quick blanch before you toss them in , do that while the pasta cooks too.

---

I added olives , but i wanted them to be nice and firm so i added them right before serving.

---

When the pasta is done , drain it and rinse it in cold water.

---

Let the pasta cool before you toss it with the dressing.

---

Chill in the fridge for 2-24 hours , and allow the dish to come to room temperature before serving.
