How To Make tortellini in creme herb sauce

  • Step 1
    cook tortellini 2 mins less than it saids on package. Drain and set aside. I usually keep a little pasta water on the side.

    Saute garlic in olive oil till just a golden brown, then add basil, parsley and cheese.
  • Step 3
    Stir around and then add in the cream stirring to combine.
  • Step 4
    Now add cooked tortellini to pan and cook for about 5 mins. Taste and see if you want more cheese or some salt and pepper. Serve with a tossed sald and some crusty bread or Garlic bread. I serve with garlic bread.
