Tortellni Pasta Salad

I made my favorite pasta salad to make total last minute for the Boy Scout carry-in today.  It makes A LOT and everyone seems to like it.  Plus, it is super easy which seems to be my requirement for everything these days. 

Tortellini Pasta Salad
2 bags frozen tortellini
10oz of cherry tomato's
1 big block Colby jack cheese
1 bottle Italian salad dressing

Cook the tortellini according to the directions.  I usually boil until the float.  Drain and let it cool in your big bowl.
Cut the tomato's in half.  Cube the cheese. Mix all together in your big bowl.  Cover the pasta mix with the salad dressing and stir to coat.  Chill until time to serve.

Be aware that the cheese may melt if the pasta isn't cool enough.  So, be prepared.

It keeps well and can be made with light dressing. 

Enjoy!!
