Instructions
1
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook tortellini in the boiling water until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain; set aside to cool.
2
Meanwhile, bring a saucepan of water to a boil; cook peas in the boiling water for 2 minutes. Drain; set aside to cool.
3
Combine cooled tortellini, cooled peas, tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, chives, and parsley in a large bowl.
4
Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, sugar, ¾ teaspoon salt, and ⅛ teaspoon black pepper together in a small bowl until well combined; it will taste sour. Pour vinaigrette over tortellini salad; toss well.
5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate at least 2 hours. Season with salt and black pepper before serving.
