3 CHEESE TORTELLINI CHICKEN PASTA SALAD
My co-worker and friend made this salad and its been a favorite of mine ever since,however I do not like mayo in my pasta salads so I changed it up to make this my own with winning results,just ask my 3 sons! It makes a huge amount yet with them its gone in 2 days. For myself its like a weeks worth of lunches. I make this all the time, hope you try it and enjoy it.
