Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 package (9 oz) cheese tortellini

  5. Add the cheese tortellini and let them cook for 3-5 minutes, or until they float to the top and are tender.
  6. Creamy finish: Lower the heat and mix in the heavy cream, tasting and adjusting seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
  7. Stir in the torn basil just before serving.
