Jenny Craig Recipe Creation: Tortellini Primavera | No Thanks to Cake
There's something special about this meal when you load it up with all the fresh veggies. Diced asparagus, sauteed spinach, and fresh tomatoes are what I use to brighten up today's dish; however, feel free to use whichever fresh vegetables you have in your refrigerator right now!
Ingredients
- 1 pkg. Three Cheese Tortellini with Chicken
- 4 spears asparagus, sliced
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 1 Tbsp. sweet onion, diced
- 1 tsp. garlic, minced
- cooking spray
- crushed red pepper flakes, optional
- 3 grape tomatoes, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
- Cook your tortellini in the microwave per the packaging instructions. Set aside.
- Prepare a skillet with cooking spray, and saute your onion, garlic, spinach, and asparagus until your spinach is wilted (about 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently). Season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Add your tortellini to the skillet, and stir to combine the vegetables with the pasta and sauce.
- Move to serving bowl, top with crushed red pepper + sliced grape tomatoes for garnish.
- Serve and enjoy!
