Creamy Pesto Tortellini Salad

To quickly chill the hot cooked tortellini, place a single layer on a wax paper-lined cookie sheet and refrigerate for about 20 minutes. This basil-laced salad makes a nice side dish or light summer supper.

1 9-oz package of fresh tortellini, cooked according to package directions and chilled
1/4 cup crème fraîche (or mayonnaise, if crème fraîche is unavailable)
2 tablespoons prepared basil pesto sauce
1/3 cup freshly grated Romano cheese
coarse salt and freshly-ground pepper

Combine everything. Add salt and pepper to taste.
