This dish is REALLY good. Since I'm not a fan of garlic, I tend to use a whisper--definitely NOT two cloves! This dish serves 4.
((I made the items generic for you--the recipe calls for Wegman's specific products.))
2 pkgs. (9 oz each) of 6-cheese tortellini; prepar per directions; keep warm
12 oz of fresh chopped Rappi
1 tsp olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup roasted tomatoes, chopped (~7 oz)
1 pkg (7 oz) sun-dried tomato pesto sauce (this is Wegman's specific, but maybe you can find something similar in your supermarket in the dairy section)
1 cup vegetable stock
S&P to taste
4 Tbsp shredded parmiggiano reggiano cheese
- Blanch rappi 2-3 minutes in boiling, salted water. Drain; transfer to bowl of ice water. Drain & set aside.
- Heat olive oil in large skillet on Medium heat; add garlic. Cook, stirring, 30 seconds or until lightly browned. Add rappi and tomatoes; stir. Stir in pesto sauce and vegetable stock. Bring to simmer; simmer about 3 minutes.
- Add tortellini; stir to heat through, about 2 minutes. Season to taste w/ salt and pepper.Transfer to serving platter; sprinkle with cheese. (I keep a wedge of Parmiggiano-Reggiano in the fridge and grate it over whatever I've prepared.)
