• * you can also make this salad for carb lovers by adding one, cooked and cooled bag of tri-colored tortellini to this salad right before serving. There are times where I make and serve this salad both ways for my both my carb loving and low carb loving friends. I just split the ingredients in half and add tortellini to one and omit the lettuce.
