Ingredients

1 pint heavy cream
1/2 cup butter
4 ounces cream cheese
1 leek, thinly sliced
3/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon garlic powder, add in more to suit your taste if you prefer
salt and pepper, to taste
1 lb frozen shrimp (I prefer using salad shrimp)
1 lb cheese tortellini pasta, cooked and drained
garnish with parsley or chives, for decoration

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.

Not bad, but not amazing either. The sauce was a bit bland, and the shrimp were overcooked. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This tortellini and shrimp dish was an absolute delight! The Alfredo sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the shrimp were cooked perfectly. I added a bit of extra garlic and Parmesan cheese, and it was even better. Will definitely be making this again
