  1. NOTE: Use good quality fresh or possibly frzn tortellini.
  2. Break the broccoli into florets and slice the tender stems. Peel and cut the carrots diagonally into 1/4-inch slices. Rinse, dry and cut the white part and 2 inches of the green into thin julienne. Core, seed and cut into julienne strips the red and yeller peppers.
  3. Cook the tortellini in boiling salted water according to package instructions. Drain thoroughly and place in a large mixing bowl.

  4. Process the egg yolk, lemon juice, mustard and vinegar in a food processor for 30 seconds. With the machine running, pour the oils in a thin steady stream through the feed tube to make a light mayonnaise. Add in the thyme, orange zest and salt and pepper to taste. Process to combine.
  5. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat thoroughly. Serve at room temperature or possibly slightly chilled.
