Tortellini Pasta Salad

"I got this recipe from a chef, he was reluctant to part with it, but I was persistant! This salad is great for a potluck or banquet. It makes a lot and is filling. I don't recommend using meat filled pasta as it alters the taste. I use "lots" more dill for flavour - be sure the dill is very fresh so the flavour is more intense."

I live in the rural yet urban-ish area of Chilliwack in B.C.'s beautiful Fraser Valley with 2 whippets; Ginger and Albie, and a retired racing greyhound; Lady and Rascal & Milo the tabby cats. I have been a nurse for 37 years. I like quick and easy meals especially on my work days. I often make casseroles and one-dish meals on my work days. My favourite cookbook is Harrowsmith and the Company's Coming series. http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/25063/IMG_0032.JPG</p>
