Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 6 cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 cup Sun Dried Tomatoes in oil
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 pinch Red Pepper Flakes
  • 2 tablespoons Flour
  • 2 cups Pacific Vegetable Broth
  • 20 ounces Fresh Cheese Tortellini
  • 1/2 cup Cream
  • 2 cups Fresh Spinach
  • 1 cup Parmigiano

Method
 

  1. Add olive oil, garlic, sun dried tomatoes (and their oil!), Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes to a heavy-bottomed pot.
  2. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until garlic is tender and fragrant.
  3. Add flour and cook for 3 minutes to create a roux.
  4. 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.
  5. Turn the heat off, add in the heavy cream, parmigiano, and spinach, and stir once more until the spinach is wilted.
  6. If it's too dry and you want it more saucy, add a little more chicken stock or an extra splash of milk or heavy cream.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
