CHICKEN CAESAR TORTELLINI WITH TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:

• 1. Add tortellini to a generous amount of salted boiling water; boil for minimum time on package, usually about 8 minutes. Rinse tortellini under cold running water until cool; drain. 2. Meanwhile, stir dressing with black pepper and basil. Turn pasta in to dressing. To avoid breaking up pasta, use a big spoon to carefully mix the salad with a lifting motion from bottom. Salad can be covered and refrigerated for up to a day. 3. When ready to serve, gently fold in chicken and nuts. Strew Parmesan overtop; serve with a baguette and seasonal vegetables.
