"A one-pan dish I can get behind! The tortellini is cooked to start with so not entirely a one-pot meal but so so easy. The longest step is just cooking down the tomatoes and that takes about ten minutes max!
I liked it with a cheese tortellini but veggie filled or meat filled would be great too!"

ingredients
- 2 teaspoons olive or avocado oil
- 1 shallot, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes
- 1/2 cup roasted red peppers
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 3/4 cup parmesan cheese, divided
- 2 cups chopped spinach
- 3 cups cooked cheese tortellini
Method
Step 1
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Warm up oil and cook shallots and garlic for about 3 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 2
Toss in tomatoes and cook down for ten minutes until softened. Gently push down the back of the tomatoes to release some liquid and help them burst slightly.
Step 3
Add spices, red peppers, and tomato paste. Stir and mix in cream. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the cream starts to darken in color.
Step 4
Add in 1/2 cup of Parmesan cheese, cooked tortellini, and chopped spinach. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese.
Step 5
Adjust for salt, garnish with parsley or basil if desired.
