(Courtesy of Taste of Home)


Ingredients: 
2 c. heavy whipping cream
1 c. fresh broccoli florets
2 1/2 c. shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
1/4 tsp. coarsely ground pepper
1 tsp. minced fresh parsley


Directions:
In a large saucepan, cook cream and broccoli, uncovered, over medium-low heat for 5-6 minutes or until broccoli is crisp-tender.  Meanwhile, cook tortellini according to package directions.


Stir 2 cups cheese and pepper into broccoli mixture.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10-12 minutes or until cheese is melted and mixture is thickened, stirring occasionally.  


Drain tortellini; add to sauce and toss to coat.  Sprinkle with parsley and remaining cheese.
