CHEESE TORTELLINI WITH CHERRY TOMATOES
This simple and delicious pasta dish is adapted from Vegetarian Times magazine. One thing I didn't change was the onion powder - I rarely cook with it, and I didn't substitute it here only because I was out of fresh onions. I am glad I didn't, since I think this is one case where the dry powder really works better. It blends with and thickens the olive oil to make a sauce with great flavor. I served this with a tossed salad and some warm French bread with dipping oil and it was a quick and wonderful meal.
