Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounce) packages fresh cheese tortellini
- 6 tablespoons butter
- 1 pint heavy cream

- 3 cups freshly shredded Parmesan cheese
- 2 cups diced cooked ham

- Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, about 3 minutes.
- Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add cream and stir frequently until heated through. Season with nutmeg and pepper. Slowly mix in Parmesan cheese, stirring constantly, and allow to thicken. Mix in ham and peas.
- Drain cooked tortellini and return to the pot. Pour sauce over tortellini and toss to combine.

Reviews
This turned out good but it’s better with garlic.
This recipe is very good. Made half of it for 3 people and we still had leftovers! Will make it again.
I loved how easy it was to make! My kids loved it! I used only 2 cups of Parmesan, because I wanted it creamier
