kosher salt |
parsley |
fresh garlic or garlic powder |

1/2 lb cubed hard salami |
1/2 lb cubed provolone cheese |
1/2 lb cubed pepperoni |
chopped tomato |
black olives or green olives |
cucumber |
zucchini or squash |
asparagus |

1. Cook tortellini in boiling water with a bit of salt.
2. Drain and cool, do not rinse.
3. Whisk together herbs and dressing.
4. Chop all your vegetables.
