    Pan Roasted Tortellini and Asparagus

    Prep Time10 minutes
    Cook Time15 minutes

    Ingredients 

    • 1 Tbsp olive oil
    • 20 oz. box cheese tortellini
    • 2 cups warm water
    • 2 cups heavy cream
    • 3 oz. mascarpone cheese
    • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
    • Pepper to taste
    • 1 lb. asparagus
    • 1 Tbsp olive oil
    • 1 tsp seasoning salt
    • Garnish: fresh chopped basil

    Instructions

    • Preheat oven to 400 F.
    • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over high heat and toast the tortellini for 1 minute. Pour in the warm water, cover and let the tortellini steam-cook for 4 to 5 minutes.
    • Once they have swelled, stir in the heavy cream, mascarpone cheese and grated Parmesan cheese. Stir and let simmer over low heat for 4 to 5 more minutes. Season with pepper to taste.
    • Lay the asparagus in a single layer on a baking sheet and drizzle olive oil and seasoning salt over the top. Roast in the preheated oven for 6 to 8 minutes, or until bright green and fork tender.
    • Serve Pan Roasted Tortellini and Asparagus with fresh basil garnish.

    I have a little problem. I cannot make a meal that costs more than $5. It’s unnatural, but my pocketbook thanks me.
