RAVIOLI/TORTELLINI WITH A PEA RED PEPPER SAUCE
This is so easy and quick to put together. Take advantage of a good fresh cheese tortellini or ravioli and you have an amazing quick dinner that is healthy as well. I love the freshness of the peas and red pepper vs a heavy tomato sauce for a nice change. Just make sure to use a good pasta , fresh or baby frozen peas and fresh cheese to really make the dish GREAT! This can be used over any of your favorite pasta, but I love it over a cheese ravioli or tortellini.

Steps:
- Sauce -- In a small sauce pan, add the broth, 1 cup of the peas, parsley, onion and garlic; cover and bring to a light boil, cook 1 minute and remove from the heat. Cool a couple of minutes and then puree (until smooth) in a small food processor or blender. Stir in salt and pepper to taste and set off to the side.
- Vegetable Base -- In the same pot you cooked the broth and peas inches Add the remaining peas and peppers and enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook about 2 minutes until the peas are heated through and the peppers are tender, but still crisp.
- Drain the peas and peppers, return to the pot and add the pea and broth puree, mix until everything is well heated through. Season with salt and pepper if needed. Remember, this is a very light and healthy dish - but a wonderful sauce.
- Pasta -- As the Pea and Pepper sauce is cooking, cook the pasta according to package directions. Cook until tender, drain and toss with the pea puree.
- Serve -- Just enjoy over the cheesy, creamy pasta. Garnish with fresh grated or shaved parmesan. This is also great topped over a baked potato or even over grilled chicken. Just toss with some angel hair pasta for a very light dinner. The sauce is light and full of flavor. ENJOY!

Steps:
- In a large pot of boiling salted water, cook tortellini about 2 minutes less than package instructions. Add peas; cook until pasta is al dente and peas are tender, 2 minutes more. Reserving 1 cup pasta water, drain. Set aside pasta and peas.
- Melt butter in pasta pot over medium-low heat. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Discard garlic.
- To pasta pot, add pasta and peas, Parmesan, and 3/4 cup reserved pasta water; season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Add more pasta water, if necessary, to thin sauce. Serve, topped with additional Parmesan if desired.
Tips:
- For the perfect pasta dough, use a combination of all-purpose flour and semolina flour. Semolina flour will give the dough a slightly chewy texture.
- When rolling out the pasta dough, make sure it is thin enough to see through, but not so thin that it tears.
- To make the pea and red pepper sauce, use fresh peas and red peppers for the best flavor.
- If you don't have heavy cream, you can substitute milk or vegetable broth.
- To make the tortellini, place a small amount of filling in the center of a pasta square. Fold the square in half diagonally, then bring the two bottom corners up to meet the top corner.
- To make the ravioli, place a small amount of filling in the center of a pasta square. Fold the square in half, then press the edges together to seal.
- Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until it is al dente, then drain and toss with the sauce.

This recipe for raviolitortellini with a pea and red pepper sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. The pasta is light and flavorful, and the sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table!
