Cooking Steps

1

Add 10 cups water and 2 tsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Add tortellini to the boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min. Reserve 1 1/4 cups (2 1/2 cups) pasta water, then drain tortellini.

Meanwhile, heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. While the pan heats, thinly slice mushrooms. Thinly slice chives.

Step 2
3

When the pan is hot, add pine nuts to the dry pan. Toast, stirring often, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on pine nuts so they don't burn.) Transfer toasted pine nuts to a plate.

Step 3
4

Reheat the same pan over medium-high. When the pan is hot, add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter, then swirl until melted. Add mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, 4-5 min. Season with pepper. Add Cream Sauce Spice Blend and garlic puree. Cook, stirring often, until mushrooms are coated and garlic is fragrant, 30 sec.

Step 4
5

Add 1 cup (2 cups) reserved pasta water, stock powder, Lemon Pepper Seasoning and cream cheese to the pan with mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until sauce is smooth and comes to a simmer. Once simmering, add tortellini and half the Parmesan. Cook, stirring gently, until sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 min. (TIP: If sauce reduces too much, add remaining pasta water to loosen.) Add spinach. Cook, stirring gently, until spinach wilts, 1-2 min. Season with pepper, to taste. Remove the pan from heat.
