Steps:
- Set a large pot of salted water boiling and cook the tortelloni according to package instructions.
- Meanwhile in a large and deep pan heat the sun-dried tomato pesto together with minced garlic over low heat and fry while stirring for no longer than 30 seconds. Then add the heavy cream and whisk to combine. Bring to a simmer, then add the spinach and let it wilt for a minute, then stir in the grated cheese. Take off the heat and keep warm.
- Drain the tortelloni while reserving 1/2 cup of pasta water. Add the tortelloni directly to the sauce and toss gently to combine. If the dish is a bit dry add a splash of the reserved pasta water to loosen it until the right consistency. Serve immediately with additional grated Parmesan and black pepper.

CHEESE TORTELLINI WITH CREAMY TOMATO AND SPINACH SAUCE
This is a copycat recipe from a local chain of restaurants. They took it off their menu, so I had to develop my own. It turned out so good, it might be just better than the original. Garnish with more basil and Parmesan.
