Quick Weeknight Yummy
July 27th, 2005 | Published in Food
Last night, in a fit of inspiration, I made the following:
Ingredients
1 package Olivieri Three Cheese Tortellini
1 package Olivieri Alfredo Sauce
8 pods (they come in ice-cube-sized pods) Frozen Chopped Spinach
2 trimmed boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Procedure
Cook chicken, however you like. I quick fried it with a little olive oil and pepper, but I suspect the ideal method here would be grilling. Cut chicken into bite sized pieces.
Boil water, and cook tortellini according to package directions (package says 8 mins, but I usually do 7).
Microwave spinach pods in a cereal bowl with a little water on High for 2 mins or so. Mix alfredo sauce with spinach, and microwave again for 2-3 mins on High.
Assemble. Top with fresh grated parmasean and ground pepper.
All told, it takes about 20 mins to make, and is exceedingly yummy. Not the healthiest meal in the world (cheese dunked in cheese with cheese on top), but it’s enough to feed two hungry people with enough leftovers for lunch. Yum!
