Made it with the chicken tortellini and veggie medley of broccoli, cauliflower, and carrots. Also added sweet yellow peppers. Delish! My meat loving boys said it was a "do again" meal.

This was my first recipe from this site. I added my own thing to it, but it was delicious! I used Sargento cheese, Burtoli tortellini's chicken. I also used diced tomotoes from a can, and broccoli steamers. I lastly added some turkey slices. It was sooo good!

Love this recipe! I go a bit heavier on the veggies since my kids don't mind. I love using fresh basil and veggies. I used spinach tortellini which went great with the Parmesan cheese. I definitely suggest trying this at least once!
