Cheese Tortellini with Ham and Peas in Creamy Sauce

This was really good.  I’m a sucker for cream sauces and this was no exception.  It was really thick and I probably should have thickened the sauce a little bit slower, but in the end it turned out really well and we both enjoyed it.

Cheese Tortellini with Ham and Peas in Creamy Sauce

Makes 4 servings – 6 WW Points each

Ingredients 1/2 pound refrigerated fresh cheese tortellini 1 cup frozen peas 1/4 pound deli-sliced ham, chopped 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1 cup whole milk 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper

Preparation Bring a large pot of water to a boil.  Add the tortellini and cook according to package directions.  Stir in the peas during the last 2 minutes of cooking, drain.

Meanwhile, coat a large nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and heat over medium heat.  Add the ham and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes.  Remove and reserve the ham.  Dissolve the flour in the milk in a small bowl and add to the skillet.  Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened, 8-10 minutes.  Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan cheese and pepper.  Add the ham, tortellini and peas and toss to coat.
