Broccolini Tortellini

This Broccolini Tortellini with pancetta is quick, easy, delicious and the best part you only need one pan.

I don’t know about you but  this shelter in place has me cooking and cleaning more then when I was in the restaurant. So am always looking for quick and easy,and if it’s make in one pan that’s a bonus.

This pasta recipe was created out of the contents of my fridge, and whatever pasta I had. I knew it was going to be good, broccolini, tortellini and pancetta together are what dreams are made of.

Well it turned out better than I could have dreamt and the whole family loved it!!

About The Ingredients

Like most of my recipes this Broccolini Tortellini pasta is customizable. By changing the ingredients you can make this recipe fit your lifestyle, tastes and what you have available.

Though broccoli and broccolini have a very similar flavors broccolini is slightly sweeter and more expense. That’s what I had in my fridge so that’s what I used.

You can use broccoli if that’s what you have on hand, it works. Now about the pancetta which is Italy’s version of  bacon, the difference between the two is that pancetta is never smoked.

In some recipes swapping the two doesn’t work because bacon has a smokey flavor, but in this Brocollini Tortellini it works just fine. I tested the recipe using broccoli and bacon, it was just as a delicious.

I hope you make this recipe it’s delicious. And when you do please leave me a comment, and don’t forget to tag me on Instagram, hearing from you is my favorite part!!!
