Cook the cheese-filled tortellini according to the package instructions. Drain and rinse with cold water to cool. Set aside to dry.
While the tortellini is cooking, wash and prepare the fresh fruits. Hull and slice the strawberries, and ensure the blueberries, pineapple chunks, and grapes are clean and ready to use.
In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, honey, and lime juice to create the dressing.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked tortellini, strawberries, blueberries, pineapple chunks, and grapes.
Pour the honey-lime dressing over the salad and gently toss to combine, making sure all the ingredients are evenly coated.
Refrigerate the salad for at least 15-20 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy this refreshing, unique salad!
