Preparation
1
Cook tortellini

  • Before starting, wash and dry all produce.
  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high.
  • To the boiling water, add tortellini. Cook for 2-4 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite.
  • Reserve 1/4 cup (1/2 cup) pasta water.
  • Strain tortellini, then return to the pot, off heat.

2
Prep

  • Meanwhile, peel, then finely chop shallot.
  • Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
  • Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Roughly chop spinach.

3
Cook veggies

  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter, then shallots and peppers. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring occasionally, until softened. 
  • Add garlic. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring often, until fragrant.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

4
Make cream sauce

  • To the pan with veggies, add cream cheese, cream, broth concentrate and reserved pasta water. Cook for 1-2 min, stirring occasionally, until sauce reduces slightly.
  • Season with salt and pepper.

5
Finish tortellini

  • Pour cream sauce over tortellini in the pot, then add spinach and sun-dried tomato pesto.
  • Return the pot to medium and cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, until spinach wilts and sauce coats tortellini.
  • Season with salt and pepper, if you like.

6
Finish and serve

  • Divide creamy cheese tortellini between bowls.
  • Sprinkle Parmesan over top.
