Creamed Spinach And Tortellini And With Old Bay Shrimp Recipes

Steps:

• Cook tortellini according to package directions.
• Heat butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion; cook until soft and translucent. Mix in cream cheese, parmesan, milk, mushrooms, and spinach.
• Gently mix in tortellini and cherry tomatoes with skillet contents; warm through, and serve.

Steps:

• Peel/devein shrimp and set aside.
• Cook the tortellini by following the package directions; drain and set aside.
• In a big skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter.
• Add in the shrimp, shallot, and basil.
• Saute/stir for about 5 minutes.
• Add tortellini and parmesan cheese; toss; season with salt and pepper if desired, then serve.

Steps:

• Cook pasta as directed on package, omitting salt.
• Meanwhile, heat dressing in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add garlic; cook 1 min. Add tomatoes and shrimp; mix well. Bring just to boil. Stir in spinach; cover. Simmer 1 to 2 min. or until spinach is wilted, stirring occasionally.
• Drain pasta. Add to skillet with basil; simmer, uncovered, 3 to 4 min. or until sauce is thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Serve topped with cheese.

Steps:

• Heat large pot of water to boiling for pasta. (When it comes to a boil, add salt.).
• Meanwhile, heat oil in medium skillet over low heat. Add onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in plum tomatoes with juice and the basil. Increase heat to medium and cook uncovered, stirring and breaking up tomatoes, until sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes. Stir heavy cream into sauce. Cook, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens again, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper; keep warm.
• Meanwhile, add tortellini to salted boiling water and cook according to package directions. About 2 minutes before it should be done, add spinach and cook until tortellini is ready, about 2 minutes longer. Drain well and transfer to wide serving bowl. Spoon sauce over top, sprinkle with Parmesan cheese, and serve hot.

Steps:

• In a saucepan, over medium heat, melt the butter. When the butter is melted, whisk in the flour and cook for about 90 seconds until the flour taste has cooked out. Then, add in the half and half and stir well to combine. It's a good idea to make sure the heat is on high at this point and as soon as it starts to thicken, lower the heat back to medium. Add in all of the other ingredients except the tortellini and stir occasionally to combine well and to prevent from sticking. Once the sauce is thick, toss in the pasta and serve. Toss the shrimp together with the olive oil, salt, and Old Bay. Get a skillet hot and then sauté the shrimp on both sides until they're cooked through. Serve immediately.
