Steps:
- Put a large pot of salted water on to boil for the tortellini.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and liberally coat a large, rimmed baking sheet with nonstick spray.
- Trim the woody ends from the asparagus spears and peel away a bit of the outer skin toward the bottom to ensure tenderness and even cooking.
- Cut each of the spears into 3 or 4 pieces and toss with a little salt and pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil.
- Arrange the asparagus on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer and roast until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (The exact timing will depend on the thickness of the spears.)
- While the asparagus roasts, heat the butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a small frying pan over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, until soft and translucent. Add the garlic and continue cooking until the mixture is pale golden in color, about 1 minute longer.
- Deglaze the pan with the white wine, scraping up any browned bits that may have accumulated on the bottom.
- Simmer for 1 to 2 minutes, then reduce the heat to low to keep warm.
- Cook the tortellini until tender, then drain.
- Add the asparagus to the garlic-onion mixture, combine and increase the heat to medium.
- Stir in the lemon juice, zest, and cream. Add the tortellini and toss to combine.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed, then transfer to a serving dish.
- Sprinkle with parsley, grind a little black pepper over the top and serve.

TORTELLINI WITH ASPARAGUS & LEMON
This is a terrific warm-weather dish, loaded with fresh flavors. I make mine meatless, but some sliced grilled chicken on top would be awesome, too. -Crystal Schlueter, Northglenn, Colorado

Steps:
- Place the woody stems from the asparagus in a food processor. Process until smooth. Transfer the pureed asparagus to a fine-mesh strainer set over a small bowl. Let the juices drain, 5 to 10 minutes, pressing down lightly on the puree with a wooden spoon occasionally. Reserve the juice and discard the pulp.
- Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk the ricotta, Parmesan and 1 tablespoon lemon juice with some salt and pepper. Add the lemon zest and set aside.
- Once the water has boiled, add the cavatelli and cook according to the package instructions until al dente.
- Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook until lightly golden, about 2 minutes. Remove the garlic, then add the sliced asparagus and saute until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain the cavatelli directly into the skillet with the asparagus. Add about half of the asparagus juice and allow to simmer for 1 minute. Add the remaining asparagus juice and the remaining tablespoon lemon juice and cook until the pasta is glossy, about 1 minute. Transfer to a bowl and garnish with Pecorino-Romano, lemon zest, dollops of the whipped ricotta, basil and black pepper.
TORTELLINI TOSS
Basil, marjoram and Parmesan cheese nicely season this satisfying main dish from Polly Lynam of Mequon, Wisconsin. "I saute the meat while the pasta is cooking, so it takes just minutes to make," she says. "My family likes it with tender strips of pork, but chicken is an easy alternative."

TORTELLINI WITH ASPARAGUS AND TOMATOES
I whipped this together after reading a similar recipe calling for spinach instead of asparagus. My bf really enjoyed this. I hope you do too! P.S. I am going to be honest and tell you I don't measure anything, so these are really approximations of the ingredients I used. PLEASE adjust to what you feel would better suite your taste.
