Easy Breasy Tortellini
This recipe was created in an attempt to send something for lunch that actually gets eaten!! Lately, my kids have decided that lunches are “yucky”. They are typically great eaters, so I wasn’t worried, just didn’t like the waste! This tortellini breaks away from the traditional Italian flavours and instead adopts more of an Asian flair. It is super simple and hearty and best of all, makes enough to create a great quick and easy dinner too.
My kids are fine eating it at room temperature and love it if I send a little extra soy sauce on the side. For dinner, I add steamed broccoli, bok choy and some of my Li Ju An Dipping Sauce!
Easy Breasy Tortellini
- 1 package frozen Tortellini (I use spinach and cheese)
- water for boiling
- good quality soy sauce or tamari sauce
- peanut or olive oil
- sesame oil
- 3 green onions, chopped on a diagonal
- 2 generous handfuls fresh sugar snap or snow peas, rough chopped
- sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper
Cook tortellini according to package directions. Drain. While tortellini is still hot, add green onions, snow peas, soy sauce and oils. Gently combine. Add pepper. Easy breasy!! Serve immediately or refrigerate for ready made lunch or dinner. YUM!
