"This is a super quick and delicious recipe. Not low in fat but high in flavor. Fresh cheese-filled tortellini combined with cubed ham, onion and green peas in a rich, cream sauce. Serve with garlic bread and a salad. Enjoy!"

Ingredients :

2 tablespoons butter
1/2 pound cooked ham, cut into 1/2 inch pieces
4 cups half-and-half
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 cups frozen green peas
9 ounces fresh cheese-filled tortellini

Instructions :

Prep : 15M	Cook : 5M	Ready in : 45M

Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and ham and saute for 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent.
Pour in the half-and-half and the cheese, stirring frequently, until the sauce starts to thicken and bubble. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.
Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook to desired doneness, or according to package directions. Add the peas to the boiling tortellini in the final minute of cooking. Drain all from the water and toss with the ham and sauce mixture.
