Fresh Basil Tortellini Salad

    First time I made this I added the grape tomatoes and agreed that the carrots seemed out of place. I think they were too hard & crunchy. Next time I made it I threw the carrots in to cook with the tortellini. After draining I glazed them with a bit of honey. Made a good difference. I wanted to keep veggies in and only added a quick extra step.

    Fresh Basil Tortellini Salad, This is a great pasta salad with cheese tortellini and sweet basil. Plan ahead, because it should chill for a couple hours to allow flavors to blend., First time I made this I added the grape tomatoes and agreed that the carrots seemed out of place. I think they were too hard & crunchy. Next time I made it I threw the carrots in to cook with the tortellini. After draining I glazed them with a bit of honey. Made a good difference. I wanted to keep veggies in and only added a quick extra step., Does this recipe have grape tomatoes? Looks like it does in the picture. If so, they are not listed in the ingredients.
