directions

  • In a large saucepan, melt the butter and add the minced garlic.
  • Sauté until golden brown.
  • Next add the vegetable stock followed by the heavy cream.
  • Reduce liquid for six or seven minutes.
  • Next add the cornstarch and water mixture.
  • Keep stirring sauce over medium heat until it begins to thicken slightly.
  • Sauce won’t be too thick, but will coat the back of a spoon.
  • Next add the Parmesan cheese, parsley, and the salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add red pepper strips, and peas to the warmed sauce.
  • Boil tortellini according to package directions.
  • Drain, and toss with sauce, peppers and peas,.
  • I like to cook pasta in sauce over the heat for 1-2 minutes and then serve.

  1. I used alfredo sauce from a jar because I was pressed for time. I don't usually make meals that have so many store-bought ingredients, but this was delicious! My husband didn't even miss his meat! I would also say that this recipe makes peas taste good if you're not a fan of them!
