Let’s Make Some Magic

The Tortellini Tango

Fill a big pot with water, toss in a pinch of salt, and get it boiling. Drop in the Kite Hill tortellini and cook it per the package, usually 3-5 minutes. Those little pockets float when they’re ready. Don’t overdo it, or they’ll get mushy. Drain ‘em and set aside. I sneak a taste here, they’re that good!

The Saucy Sizzle

Heat a swirl of olive oil in a big pan over medium. Add your minced garlic and cherry tomatoes. Sauté ‘til the tomatoes soften and burst, about 3-4 minutes. Smells like heaven already! Toss in the spinach and a splash of veggie broth. Stir it up ‘til the spinach wilts and the broth reduces a bit, maybe 2 minutes. That’s your light, luscious sauce, ready to hug the pasta.

The Grand Toss

Slide the cooked tortellini into the pan. Gently toss it all together so every piece gets coated in that garlicky goodness. Let it mingle for a minute or two, flavors locking in! Pull it off the heat, sprinkle with vegan parmesan, tear some fresh basil over top, and add a pinch of red pepper flakes if you’re feeling spicy. Serve it hot, pure bliss in every bite!
