Cooking Steps
1
- To a large pot, add 10 cups water and 1 tbsp salt (use same for 4 servings). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Meanwhile, quarter zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/4-inch quarter-rounds.
- Roughly chop spinach.
2
- Heat a large oven-proof pan over medium. When hot, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil, mirepoix. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until softened.
- Add zucchini. Cook for 3-4 min, stirring often, until zucchini is tender-crisp.
3
- Meanwhile, to the boiling water, add tortellini. Cook for 2-4 min, stirring occasionally, until tender but still firm to the bite. Reserve 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) pasta water. Strain tortellini, then return to the pot, off heat.
4
- To the pan with veggies, add tomatoes.
- Cook for 3-5 min, stirring often, until tomatoes soften.
- Add 1/3 cup (2/3 cup) water or milk and cream cheese. Bring to a simmer.
- Once simmering, reduce heat to medium-low. Cook for 2-3 min, stirring often, adding spinach in batches, until cheese is melted, spinach is wilted and sauce is slightly reduced.
5
- To the pan with sauce, add tortellini and reserved pasta water. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine. (TIP: If you don't have an oven-proof pan, transfer pasta to an 8x8-inch baking dish [9x13-inch dish for 4 portions].) [tester, pls confirm pasta water amount]
- Top with mozzarella.
- Broil on the middle rack of the oven for 3-5 min, until cheese is golden and bubbling.(TIP: Keep your eye on tortellini so it does not burn!)
6
- Let tortellini rest for 5 min before serving.
- Divide tortellini between plates.
