One night I had frozen cheese tortellini on hand and didn’t have a clue about what I was going to make. I scanned my cupboards and refrigerator and soon I was happily cooking away. So fresh-tasting and simple, this is a combination I turn to again and again!
Ingredients:
2 cups frozen cheese tortellini (about 8 ounces)
1 pound ground turkey
2 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise and sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1-1/2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 cup shredded asiago cheese, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions:
1. Cook tortellini according to package directions.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook turkey, zucchini and garlic over medium heat 7-9 minutes or until turkey is no longer pink, breaking up turkey into crumbles; drain. Add tomatoes, oregano, salt and pepper flakes; cook 2 minutes longer. Stir in 3/4 cup cheese.
3. Drain tortellini; add to skillet and toss to combine. Drizzle with oil; sprinkle with remaining cheese. Yield: 4 servings.
