Meal Planning Kit, Week 3, Day 5

Tonight Little Man asked for Pasta for dinner - I had just the answer:

Tortellini with Red Pepper Romano Sauce


quick side note on this: 
Hubby + grocery store = well, you know!

So, unless you are a man and believe "bigger is always better"
you only need an 8 oz. package of tortellini, not a 20 oz. package



I have never made a cream sauce before, so I was fascinated by how easy this is!
Melting a tablespoon of butter


Stir in a tablespoon of flower


Makes a beautiful, bubbly concoction!


Add 1/4 dry white wine.
 I had some Pinot Grigio open, so it was the easy choice


Add 1/4 cup of cream


Wow, this smells just like my favorite cheese fondue


One jar Roasted Red Pepper Romano Specialty Topping 


Little Man's favorite - salami.  He is on a very restricted diet, but this is his big treat!


Mix it all up!



And this is your creamy, yummy reward! 
Served in my much loved Biltmore Inspirations Lotus Leaf Bowl


A special bonus for Little Man, Biltmore Inspirations Roasted Garlic Basil
Seasoning Mix with EVOO, for dipping his bread!


No Hubby quote tonight, since he wasn't hear for dinner,
but we will have a leftover testing with him tomorrow.  
 Little Man says "When is the Week 4 Meal Kit arriving?"

Stay tuned, Week 4 should arrive any day!
