The fresh basil really made this dish, I've never eaten tortellini cold, but this was really good, nice clean taste. I felt so healthy eating this.

I put the finished product in a pan with some olive oil and sauteed for a few minutes. This was very good and light. We really liked it.

Very tasty. I added slice black olives to jazz up this recipe. Good for a luncheon along with crusty bread.
