Tortellini Primavera

Tortellini PrimaveraSometimes a recipe comes along that so so easy and so delicious that you make plans in your head to make it again and again. It probably won’t happen, even my favorite foods I only make once in a while, but with the ease of this meal, it just could happen! Not only that, but everyone liked it! The whole table, not a complaint did I hear. We do love pasta in this family so I guess that could be expected, mmm….thinking about eating the leftovers and it’s only 9:10 in the morning.
