Creamy Herb Tortellini Recipes

Steps:

• Cook tortellini according to package directions.
• While the tortellini is boiling, heat the butter in a small skillet over medium low heat. When butter is almost fully melted, add the herbs, onion and garlic.
• Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for 2 minutes. You don't want it to sizzle, you are just warming them in the butter, so the low heat is important.
• Put the creme fraiche in a serving bowl large enough to hold the tortellini. Add the warm butter herb mixture and stir to combine - it doesn't have to be stirred to a smooth consistency, the hot pasta will take care of that.
• Drain the pasta and add to the serving bowl, mixing well to coat pasta. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.

Steps:

• Bring the broth to a gentle boil in a medium pot over medium-high heat.
• Add the frozen vegetables to the pot and return to a gentle boil. Add the tortellini and cook until almost tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the heavy cream and cook for another 2 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning.
• Ladle into bowls and top with the shaved Parmesan and croutons. Drizzle with olive oil.

Steps:
