Tortellini toss

Preparation time: 20 minutes
Chilling time: 6 hours

Ingredients

1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated rainbow-herb, five-cheese tortellini
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, thickly sliced
5 ounces (approximately 1 cup) cherry or grape tomatoes, quartered
1 bottle (8 ounces) fat-free Italian dressing

Fill a 2-quart pot 2/3 full with water and bring to a boil. Add tortellini. Reduce heat to a gentle boil (to avoid breaking open tortellini), and cook, stirring occasionally, 6-7 minutes or until pasta is tender but firm. Drain tortellini, rinse with cool water, and drain well again.

In a large bowl, combine cooked tortellini, mushrooms, and tomatoes. Drizzle with dressing and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 6 hours to allow flavors to blend; toss twice during chilling to recoat tortellini.
