Ingredients

• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste
• 1 (8.8 ounce) package fresh pesto-filled tortellini (such as Amore®)
• 2 tablespoons chopped, drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
• 0.5 (16 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

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 and the filling is hot, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain.

Step 2

While the tortellini is cooking, combine Alfredo sauce, broccoli, and sun-dried tomatoes in a covered saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until broccoli is tender-crisp, about 6 minutes.

Step 3

Serve cooked tortellini with Alfredo sauce spooned over the top. Garnish with Parmesan cheese and season with pepper.
