Taking shortcuts in the kitchen doesn’t have to mean a boring meal! This four ingredient Pepper and Garlic Tortellini Stir Fry comes together in just 20 minutes and is guaranteed to make hungry bellies happy.
With a newborn in the house again, getting dinner on the table each night has become an interesting balancing act. Catch the baby taking a cat nap in morning? I usually sneak into the kitchen to unload the dishwasher, chop vegetables or some other prep task that will cut the time I need to spend in the kitchen that night in half. It’s amazing how a few stolen moments here and there add up to equal a much more calm dinner hour!
Taking shortcuts in the kitchen doesn’t have to mean a boring meal though! This four ingredient Pepper and Garlic Tortellini Stir Fry comes together in just 20 minutes and is guaranteed to make hungry bellies happy. Refrigerated cheese tortellini and frozen stir fry vegetables – you definitely could substitute fresh veggies as well! – are the base of this easy main dish.
Once everything is cooked, a jar of Robert Rothschild Farm Pepper & Garlic Dip is stirred in to finish the meal. This organic, all-natural and gluten free dip includes red bell and jalapeño peppers mixed with apple cider vinegar, onions and garlic to create quite the flavor punch. And with minimal effort on my part!
