Steps:
- Boil the tortellini according the package directions.
- While the tortellini is cooking, prepare the sauce. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Sprinkle in the flour and stir until it has absorbed the melted butter, becomes a paste and begins to smell nutty. Slowly whisk in the heavy cream (at first the mixture will be thick and chunky, but it will smooth and thin out), then add the salt and Parmesan cheese. Allow to simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the spinach and sun-dried tomatoes, then transfer the cooked and drained tortellini to the skillet, gently stirring to coat the tortellini with the sauce. Serve immediately.

CHEESE TORTELLINI WITH CREAMY TOMATO AND SPINACH SAUCE
This is a copycat recipe from a local chain of restaurants. They took it off their menu, so I had to develop my own. It turned out so good, it might be just better than the original. Garnish with more basil and Parmesan.

Steps:
- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top but skin is nearly soft, about 2 minutes. Drain well.
- Slice sun-dried tomatoes thinly. Heat 1 tablespoon reserved tomato oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season chicken with salt and pepper and add to the skillet; saute until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Add garlic and stir for 30 seconds. Pour in sun-dried tomatoes, diced tomatoes, cream, and white wine; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover skillet, and simmer until chicken is just cooked through, about 3 minutes.
- Transfer chicken to a separate dish. Add spinach and basil to the skillet and stir. Increase heat slightly and boil until sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. Season sauce with salt and pepper. Return chicken and cooked tortellini to skillet; cook and stir over medium heat until heated through, about 2 minutes more. Stir in Parmesan cheese.

TORTELLINI WITH BABY SPINACH AND SUN-DRIED TOMATOES
This is a super quick, yet very tasty pasta supper. I didn't add any extra olive oil to my sauce, but rather used the oil that was clinging to the sundried tomatoes after they were drained. If your tomatoes are not canned or jarred with basil leaves like mine are, please feel free to add some more fresh basil according to your taste. Also, you may use 1 pound of your favorite tortellini. I use cheese filled to keep this vegetarian, but tri-colored or meat filled will make a nice substitution

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
- Heat a large deep skillet or saucepan over medium/medium high heat.
- Add sun dried tomatoes and saute for about 30 seconds.
- Next, add garlic and crushed red pepper and cook for about 45 more seconds, careful not to let the garlic burn.
- Add tomatoes and stir together.
- Let sauce come to a boil, reduce heat to low, then cover and let simmer while pasta water comes to a boil.
- Boil pasta according to package directions (about 6-8 minutes).
- While pasta finishes cooking, add spinach to the sauce.
- I end up using about 1/2 of a 10 oz bag.
- Give spinach leaves a stir and then place lid back on the sauce to let the leaves wilt slightly.
- As pasta finishes cooking, ladle a couple scoops of sauce into serving bowl.
- Drain tortellini, and add to bowl with a couple more ladles of sauce overtop.
- Toss to combine.
- I always have some sauce left over which I keep on the side for dunking in bread.
- Top tortellini with grated cheese and serve!
