Equipment

  • braiser

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoon Olive Oil
  • 6 Garlic Cloves minced
  • 0.5 cup Sun Dried Tomatoes in oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 pinch Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 tablespoon Flour
  • 2 cups Pacific Vegetable Broth
  • 20 oz Fresh Cheese Tortellini Approximately 5 cups
  • 0.5 cup Cream
  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach
  • 1 cup Parmigiano

Instructions
 

  • Add olive oil, garlic, sun dried tomatoes (and their oil!), Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes to a heavy bottomed pot.
  • Cook for 3-4 minutes or until garlic is tender and fragrant.
  • Add flour and cook for 3 minutes to create a roux.
  • Add in the Pacific Vegetable Broth and bring to a boil. Let the mixture thicken for 3-5 minutes then add the tortellini and a pinch of salt and stir.
  • Turn the heat off and add in the heavy cream, parmigiano and spinach and stir once more until the spinach is wilted.
  • If it's too dry and you want it more saucy, add a little more chicken stock or even an extra splash of milk or heavy cream. You could even add 4oz of cream cheese if you wanted it extra creamy.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Notes

Some people say this is too dry; if that happens, you can stir in ½ cup more chicken stock (or ½ cup more heavy cream or even milk) after the tortellini is cooked through. Sometimes, if I want the sauce's consistency to hold up for a long time, I'll add 4 oz of cream cheese to the sauce and it works wonderfully!
