I know, I know, I have been behind in my cooking. We have had our plates pretty full here so I have not been stressing myself out with cooking new things lately. I am happy to say that I finally started getting my new magazines so I should start making some new dishes soon!
Here is one we did try and really liked. It was super easy too!
Ingredients
- 1 pound cheese or meat tortellini
- 4 ounces sliced bacon
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cups arugula (about 1 bunch)
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Cook the tortellini according to the package directions. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Reserve the bacon and discard the drippings.
- Wipe out skillet and return to medium heat and brown the butter: Melt the butter in a skillet or small saucepan over medium heat. Swirl or stir the butter with a wooden spoon as it starts to foam and sputter. Remove the butter from the heat as soon as it begins to turn golden brown and smells nutty, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
- Break the bacon into small pieces and add to skillet with the arugula, salt, pepper, and cooked tortellini. Toss well and divide among individual bowls.
