Recipe Info

This Broccoli Tortellini Alfredo is bursting with flavor with its pillowy cheese-stuffed tortellini in a creamy garlic parmesan Alfredo sauce with broccoli florets.

Ingredients:
4 cups broccoli florets
1 (12-ounce package) cheese tortellini
3 Tablespoons butter
3 Tablespoons flour
1 Tablespoon minced garlic (about 3 cloves)
2 cups heavy cream or milk
1/2 teaspoon Italian Seasoning
1-1/2 cups Freshly shredded parmesan cheese

Instructions:
Boil the tortellini and broccoli together in a large pot water. Drain the tortellini and broccoli and place into a serving bowl. In a large skillet over medium low heat, add the butter and stir until it melts. Add the flour and stir with the butter until it makes a roux.
Add the minced garlic and stir for about a minute. Then slowly pour in the heavy cream and continue stirring until the butter flour paste is dissolved into the heavy cream. Add the salt, pepper, and Italian Seasoning and stir. Stir in the shredded parmesan cheese.
Pour the sauce over the cheese tortellini and broccoli in the bowl and stir. Sprinkle with additional shredded parmesan cheese on top and serve! Enjoy!
