Tortellini in Creamy Rose Sauce


There are always certain days of the week that you just need a good creamy pasta dish to help make it through till the weekend. And you will probably recall that Steve and I usually opt for the amazing spaghetti bolognese recipe that we love so much, for when we find ourselves craving a great pasta dish. However, we recently decided to try our hand at something new - tortellini.

Steve and I each subscribe to a number of websites that send us regular meal ideas - sometimes they are good and sometimes it is very easy to just hit delete. But last weekend when we were making a list of dishes we wanted to make for the coming week, Steve received an email from KraftRecipes.com and thought that we should give it a try. The recipe was called Tortellini in Creamy Rose Sauce.

As you should be able to notice by now, we look for two main criteria when deciding if we want to make something 1. Will this recipe be delicious 2. Is this recipe complicated (if it is, it usually does not make it onto the weekday meal list - however, we do tend to tag some of the recipes that we are interested in and may seem complicated for special occasions). And of course, this recipe passed the initial judgement test of sounding delicious and relatively simple to make.

We really enjoyed the recipe - Steve enjoyed it slightly more than me (simply just our preferences). However, we both agreed that we would make this again - our only suggestion is that we would make double the sauce. Give this one a try when you are craving a great pasta dish!

Bon appetit & enjoy!
