I made this last night based on a recipe from the Kraft Food & Family magazine. Wow, it was delicious and easy! Most of the ingredients I keep on hand so it was perfect on a night I had to work late and didn't want to spend much time preparing dinner. I did not follow the measurements in the recipe but just kind of threw stuff in until it looked good. I also added black olives.If you haven't already, you should sign up for their FREE magazine. :)
1 pkg. (9 oz.) refrigerated cheese tortellini (I used frozen)
1/4 cup KRAFT Roasted Red Pepper Italian with Parmesan Dressing
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can (14-1/2 oz.) no-salt-added diced tomatoes, undrained
3/4 lb. cooked cleaned medium shrimp
1 bag (6 oz.) baby spinach leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil (I used dried)
2 Tbsp. KRAFT 100% Grated Parmesan Cheese
COOK tortellini in large (4-qt.) saucepan as directed on package. Drain in colander; set aside. Heat dressing in same pan on medium-high heat. Add garlic; cook 1 min. Add tomatoes and shrimp; mix well. Bring just to boil. Stir in spinach; cover. Simmer 1 to 2 min. or until spinach is wilted, stirring occasionally.
STIR in tortellini and basil; simmer, uncovered, 3 to 4 min. or until sauce is thickened, stirring occasionally.
SERVE topped with the cheese.
