Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 3 servings

  • 1 (9 ounce) package refrigerated tortellini

  • ½ cup sliced portobello mushrooms

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • ½ cup evaporated fat-free milk

  • ¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

  • 1 pinch ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, 2 to 3 minutes.

  2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Remove mixture to a small bowl.

  3. Add evaporated milk to skillet and heat over medium-low heat until warm. Stir in Parmesan cheese until melted. Add cooked tortellini and toss to coat. Garnish with mushroom-garlic mixture.
