After sampling a similar pasta salad at a market in Florida, I came home to develop my own version. This recipe is as close to the original as anything I've ever tried.

I thought the dressing was a bit too heavy for my taste. I would probably use less dressing next time.

I was not a fan of this tortellini salad. The flavors were bland and the salad was dry.
