Instructions

Prepare the Italian dressing according to your recipe and refrigerate until ready to use.
Boil salted water in a pot. Cook the tortellini until al dente as per package instructions; drain and rinse with cool water.
In a large serving bowl, mix half of the dressing with the warm tortellini. Add cucumber, cherry tomatoes, olives, bell pepper, pepperoncini, mozzarella balls, and turkey slices; toss gently.
If serving immediately, add desired remaining dressing and mix well. For best flavor later, cover and chill without adding more dressing until ready to serve.
