Ingredients

1/2 of a 16-ounce package (about 2 cups) frozen cheese-filled tortellini or one 9-ounce package refrigerated cheese-filled tortellini

1 1/2 cups broccoli flowerets

1 large carrot, thinly sliced

1/4 cup white wine vinegar

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning, crushed

1 teaspoon Dijon-style mustard

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1 medium red or yellow sweet pepper, cut into thin strips

Directions

In a large saucepan cook pasta according to package directions, except omit any salt and oil. Add broccoli and carrot the last 3 minutes of cooking; drain. Rinse with cold water; drain again.

Meanwhile, for dressing, in a screw-top jar combine the vinegar, oil, Italian seasoning, mustard, black pepper, and garlic powder. Cover and shake well. Set aside.

In a large bowl combine the pasta mixture and sweet pepper. Shake dressing. Pour the dressing over pasta mixture; toss gently to coat.

What a beautiful salad. I made it for my lunches this week and can't wait to pull this one out at the office:) I did use prosciutto and chicken tortellini instead of cheese, which in my opinion made it more suitable for a substantial lunch. The dressing was a bit vinegary, but nothing that won't stop me from eating it. Thanks!

I thought this was very good. I did add a bit of salt to it. My four year old loved it, well except for the broccoli(which he thinks is lettuce!). Very refreshing salad.Thanks!
