HUNT'S® TOMATO AND BACON TORTELLINI
Seasoned tomatoes, peas and bacon combined with cheese tortellini in a creamy sauce. While any bacon will work in this recipe, smoky thick-sliced bacon produces the best results. To substitute ham for the bacon, cook garlic in 1 tablespoon olive oil and add 1 cup diced ham with the tomatoes, tomato sauce and water. Recipe may be prepared with refrigerated tortellini in place of frozen. Use a 20-oz package and increase water to 1-1/4 cups.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the taste of your dish. Look for ripe tomatoes, smoky bacon, and tender tortellini.
- Don't skimp on the garlic. Garlic adds a delicious savory flavor to the sauce. Use at least 2 cloves, or more if you like a garlicky sauce.
- Cook the tortellini al dente. Tortellini should be cooked until it is tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked tortellini will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Add the bacon and tomatoes last. This will help to prevent the bacon from becoming overcooked and the tomatoes from becoming too soft.
- Season the dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. You may also want to add a pinch of sugar to balance out the acidity of the tomatoes.
Conclusion:
This easy and delicious one-pot meal is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's also a great way to use up leftover bacon and tomatoes. The tortellini is cooked in a flavorful sauce made with bacon, tomatoes, garlic, and onions. The dish is finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese. This dish is sure to please the whole family. You can also get creative with the ingredients and add other vegetables, such as zucchini or spinach.
