Tortellini Toss image

Basil, marjoram and Parmesan cheese nicely season this satisfying main dish from Polly Lynam of Mequon, Wisconsin. "I saute the meat while the pasta is cooking, so it takes just minutes to make," she says. "My family likes it with tender strips of pork, but chicken is an easy alternative."

I'm giving this recipe 3 stars. It was easy to make and the flavors were good, but it wasn't anything special.

I wouldn't recommend this recipe. It was a lot of work and the end result was not worth it.

I thought this recipe was just okay. The sauce was a little bland and the tortellini was a bit overcooked.
