Ingredients

  • 12 oz cheese tortellini
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 Prise salt (to taste)
  • 1 Prise pepper (to taste)
  • 1 Prise fresh basil, for garnish

Instructions

  1. In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook the tortellini according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add in the halved cherry tomatoes and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
  3. Pour in the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning. Mix well until the cheese has melted and the sauce is smooth.
  4. Add the cooked tortellini to the skillet, tossing to coat the pasta evenly in the creamy sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Plate the tortellini and garnish with fresh basil leaves. Enjoy!
