How to Make Creamy Spinach And Tortellini
- Cook tortellini according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving about 1/2 cup of the pasta cooking water.
- While tortellini cooks, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook until softened and lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
- Stir in chopped spinach, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, or until spinach wilts.
- Add chopped tomatoes and fresh basil. Stir to combine. Cook for 2 minutes more.
- Pour in heavy whipping cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Reduce heat to low. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese until melted and smooth.
- Add the cooked tortellini to the sauce. Toss gently to coat. If the sauce is too thick, add a little reserved pasta water until desired consistency is reached.
- Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until heated through.
- Serve immediately, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese.
