Broccoli Tortelloni

Broccoli Tortelloni

A quick and easy meal to prepare for dinner works so well!  No, I am not talking about getting "take- out" or taking previously made/ frozen dinners out of our freezer to quickly microwave.  Broccoli Tortelloni is quick, easy and so delicious!  

This dinner comes together so fast.  I use Steam Fresh frozen Broccoli and cheese tortelloni.  Yes, tortellini could also be used here.  Every so often I saute mushrooms and freeze in small packages ready to use.  In this dinner it is an optional ingredient to quickly add in. 

Broccoli Tortelloni   

Ingredients:  

1 pkg. Cheese Tortelloni
Broccoli Florets-
    (I use Steam Fresh, but cooked fresh would work well, too.)
A few sauteed Mushrooms- optional
1- 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil for baking and sauteing
Dried Basil
Parmesan Cheese

Method:

1. Prepare Tortelloni following package directions.
2. Prepare Broccoli Florets according to package.
3. Cut Brocolli Florets into smaller pieces.
4. Heat Olive Oil in large saute pan.
5. Carefully add drained Tortelloni and stir.
6. Add Broccoli and stir.
7. Add cooked Mushrooms. (Optional)
8. Sprinkle all with Parmesan Cheese and Basil.
9. Stir.
10. Serve.

The Tortelloni becomes a bit crispier when it is heated in the Olive Oil and it's so good!  The Parmesan Cheese and the Basil is a great addition. 

We usually have a little extra after enjoying dinner.  The small extra serving becomes a great lunch for one person after reheating in the microwave.  Try this easy and delicious dinner, soon.  Remember to add Cheese Tortelloni and Broccoli Florets to your grocery list.

Enjoy!
Yummy!
