Tortellini Salad

Recipe #297724 | 30 min | 20 min prep | SERVES 6 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: mommyoffour

This is one of my favorite salads. I like the addition of spinach and shrimp to this. Pasta salads are so filling that this could be eaten as a main dish for lunch in the warm months, we eat it as a side when we grill out. It is delicious.
