For the sauce mix the salad mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar and oil; season with salt, pepper and chopped basil leaves; then mix well. Put the sauce until about 1 hour before serving over the noodles. If you want you can add finely chopped yellow or red peppers. Cheese as well goes great with this dish. If you do not like cherry tomatoes, you can use dried tomatoes instead. Moreover, the tortellini can be filled with meat. The salad is very easy, even for cooking beginners and not too expensive. You could also use meatballs or cooked sausages. For decoration or as a "filler" you can use boiled and finely chopped eggs
