Hi Everyone! I hope you are having a great Tuesday!

Today's recipe will take less than half an hour to make. As long as it takes to boil the water and cook the tortellini. Ravioli may also been used and any other frozen vegetables could be substituted, as well. I like to sprinkle a bit of oregano with the parmesan cheese. Serve as a main dish by adding chopped up cooked chicken, ham or sausage or serve as a tasty side to any meal you may be serving. Enjoy!

Tortellini with Peas

1 9-oz. pkg. refrigerated or frozen tortellini pasta
2 cups frozen baby peas
3 Tbsp. butter
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Cook tortellini as directed on package.

Place peas in a colander. When the tortellini is cooked and al dente, pour the contents of the pot over the peas in the colander to thaw peas completely.

Return to the pot and add butter. Stir over low heat until the butter is melted and pasta and peas are coated. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.
