Tortellini with Mushrooms, Ham, Red Peppers and Cream

A comforting dish fit for any quick weeknight supper. Plus, anything with cream is good. J was very impressed by how easy this was to make. This is also my entry to this week's Presto Pasta night.

Now I have to go and go to bed early, I really hate daylight savings. What is with this anyways? Why do we do bother?

Tortellini with Mushrooms, Ham, Red Peppers and Cream
(serves 2)

2 tablespoons butter
4 cups mushrooms, roughly chopped or thickly sliced
1 cup cooked ham, cut into a large dice
1 red pepper, thinly sliced
1 cup cream
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 package tortellini, (about 350g)

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium low heat and add mushrooms with a healthy dose of pepper. Cook turning occasionally for about 10-15 minutes. Add ham and saute then add peppers and cook for 5 minutes. Add pasta to cook and pour cream over mushroom mixture. Bring to a simmer and simmer until the pasta is cook. Taste and correct if necessary.

This looks delicious! You can never go wrong with pasta, mushrooms and cream!

I am still struggling with DST. Ugh! I wrote a whole post about it a few weeks ago.
