Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

14 ounces vegetable broth or 14 ounces reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, sliced
1 cup shredded Fontina cheese or 3/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chives or 1 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 cups chopped vegetables (such as broccoli, carrots and snap peas) or 16 ounces frozen mixed vegetables
1 (16 ounce) package frozen cheese tortellini

Steps:

1.Put a large pot of water on to boil.
2.Meanwhile, whisk broth and flour in a small bowl. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until just beginning to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the broth mixture to the pan, bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in cheese, tarragon (or dill or chives) and salt.
3.Add vegetables and tortellini to the boiling water; return the water to a simmer and cook until the vegetables and tortellini are tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain; add to the pan with the sauce and stir to coat.
