Steps:
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil to cook tortellini, cook tortellini a minute shy of cook time according to directions on package. While water is coming up to a boil it's a good time to prep and cook the vegetables.
- In a 12-inch saute pan or deep skillet heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add onion and saute 3 minutes. Add corn and saute 2 minutes more.
- Add tomatoes then saute 3 minutes. Add zucchini and garlic and saute until veggies are tender and many of the tomatoes have burst, about 6 to 8 minutes longer (note that during this period it's about the right time to add the tortellini to pot of boiling water so they finish up at the same time).
- Drain the tortellini while reserving about 1/4 cup of the pasta water.
- Transfer tortellini and the marinara sauce to the pan with veggies. Cook and toss until tortellini is tender about 1 to 2 minutes. If needed add a splash of pasta water to thin.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss in 1/4 cup parmesan, the basil and the parsley.
- Serve right away topping individual servings with remaining 1/4 cup parmesan.

Tips:
- Prep Vegetables First: Before starting the tortellini, make sure to wash, peel, and chop all the vegetables. This will save time and ensure even cooking.
- Use a Large Pot: For boiling the tortellini, use a large pot to prevent overcrowding. This will allow the tortellini to cook evenly and avoid sticking.
- Don't Overcook Tortellini: Tortellini cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Once the tortellini floats to the top of the boiling water, it is done. Overcooking will make it mushy.
- Reserve Pasta Water: When draining the tortellini, reserve some of the pasta water. This can be added to the sauce to create a richer, more flavorful dish.
- Add Fresh Herbs: For extra flavor, add fresh herbs like basil, parsley, or rosemary to the sauce just before serving. This will brighten up the dish and make it even more delicious.
Conclusion:
This Harvest Vegetable Tortellini is a delicious and hearty dish perfect for a fall meal. It is packed with colorful vegetables, tender tortellini, and a creamy sauce.
