- 1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 clove garlic finely minced or grated
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
PASTA SALAD:

- 5 leaves fresh basil torn or chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
VINAIGRETTE:

PASTA SALAD:
- Cook tortellini according to package instructions. Once it has drained, drizzle a little olive oil or lemon vinaigrette over the pasta to keep it from sticking. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
