Give-Aways

I have spent the last 2 hours reading your newsletter and wonderful recipes. I have already printed a whole bunch I want to try. I love them because they are using ingredients one has on hand. I love that and just wanted you to know how much we appreciate all your hard work in putting together this newsletter. Thank you very much.

Garlic and basil provide the seasoning, while spinach and tomato add the color to this light-sauced tortellini main dish.


1 pound uncooked fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped onions
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (9-ounce) package frozen leaf spinach in a pouch, thawed
1 cup cubed, seeded tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese or Romano cheese


Cook tortellini to desired doneness as directed on package. Drain; keep warm.

Meanwhile, heat oil in large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add onion and garlic; cook until tender and lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Add spinach, tomato, basil, salt and pepper; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in whipping cream and Parmesan cheese; cook until mixture just comes to a boil. Reduce heat to low; stir in cooked tortellini. Cook an additional 4 to 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve with additional Parmesan cheese, if desired.
