Creamy Tomato Tortellini

August 27, 2011 by mandyrecipebox

I {heart} pasta. Completely and absolutely. I am forever wishing that there would be an “All Carb” diet invented to help lose weight. I’d totally win that, if it were a contest. Somebody get on that, would you? You’d get rich and make so many people happy. Wouldn’t that be nice?
9 oz. refrigerated package of cheese tortellini
2 garlic cloves, minced (or 1 tsp. minced garlic)
4 tsp. butter
4 1/2 tsp. flour
1 c. milk
15 oz. jar marinara sauce
4 oz. cream cheese, softened

Cook tortellini according to package directions. In a pan, saute garlic in butter for 1 minute. Stir in the flour. Add milk and bring to a boil. Add the marinara sauce, cream cheese, and salt and pepper, to taste. Stir until the cheese melts in. Serve over the pasta.

    Mmmm,…I love carbs too and this looks amazing. I&#39;m happy to see that the ingredient list doesn&#39;t even look too sinful. Win-win.

    I love pasta too! I&#39;d eat it every day if I wouldn&#39;t feel guilty afterwards.
