I'm always looking for new and easy pasta salad recipes, and this one definitely fits the bill. It was super quick to throw together and the results were delicious. I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken to save even more time. Thanks for sharing!

This tortellini and artichoke salad was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone loved the combination of flavors and textures. The tortellini was cooked perfectly and the artichokes added a nice crunch. I will definitely be making this salad again.
