Steps:
- Cook tortellini as directed on package. Meanwhile, thaw the frozen shrimp in a colander using cold running water. Remove the tails. If using uncooked shrimp, devein and remove tails and then sauté in a teaspoon of the butter. Remove shrimp and set aside. Do not overcook. In a saucepan combine butter, heavy cream, and cream cheese. Simmer this until all is melted, and mixed well. Add the Leeks, Parmesan Cheese and garlic powder. Simmer this for 15 - 20 minutes over low heat. Toss the tortellini with the shrimp and sauce, coating well. Add the parsley or chives and serve.
SIMPLE & CREAMY TORTELLINI ALFREDO
A great recipe from Kraft Food & Family, Winter 2008 edition (I just love that magazine!). I substituted sauteed green pepper and onion instead of the peas, as a personal preference, and it was great.

Steps:
- Rinse asparagus; lay on paper towels to dry. Trim tough ends; cut stalks into 1/2 inch lengths. Measure out 1/4 to 1/2 cup for recipe. Set aside.
- Fill a 2 to 3 quart saucepan with water, to within 1 1/2 inches from top. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to boil over high heat.
- While waiting for water to boil, empty alfredo sauce into a saucepan. Warm sauce over medium low heat, stirring frequently so as not to scorch.
- When water comes to a boil, add tortellini, stir and reduce heat to medium/medium high to avoid boil-over. Boil for 7 minutes (set timer.)
- After 7 minutes, add asparagus to boiling pasta; set timer and cook for additional 3 minutes.
- While asparagus and tortellini finish cooking, add shrimp to hot alfredo sauce on medium-low heat.
- Drain tortellini and asparagus. Return to saucepan.
- Pour shrimp and sauce over the hot pasta; stir gently to thoroughly coat pasta and asparagus. Taste for seasoning and adjust to your liking.
- Pour pasta into a warm serving dish (or spoon it from the pan 'family-style.") Garnish with chives, if desired. Serve immediately. Cover and refrigerate leftovers.
