Tortellini With Asparagus And Tomatoes
- 0.5 (12 ounce) bag frozen tortellini (I used cheese tri-colored)
- 1 lb asparagus (cut into 1/4 inch pieces)
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes (quartered)
- 3/4 cup milk (I use 1%, it really doesn't matter, higher fat=more rich)
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese
- 4 -5 fresh basil, leafs (clean and rip into pieces)
- 1 teaspoon mrs. dash garlic and herbs
- salt and pepper
- Fill pot w/ water and set to boil. At the same time put about 1/4 inch of water in medium size pan and set to boil.
- Add tortellini to boiling water in pot (cook according to directions on package) and asparagus to boiling water in pan.
- After about 4 minutes if the water in the pan isn't evaporated poor out. Add butter to the asparagus and allow to melt. Add milk and seasonings.
- After sauce has reduced to your desired consistency, remove from heat. Add tomatoes, basil, Parmesan, and cooked tortellini.
- Mix and serve!
- (You could add cooked chicken to this, or spinach or broccoli.).
- Make this your own! :).
