Very good dinner, we really enjoyed this. Noting another reviewers choice of tortellini, I thought, yum, and also used cheese filled tortellini. I used green pepper, added some sliced mushrooms, a little garlic powder and a greenpepper/onion stockcube. Quickly prepared and really good, this was a big success, thank you Lalaloula!

I did make a couple of changes and additions but, oh my, did it turn out good! I used whole wheat bow ties pasta and subbed fat free coffee creamer for the cream. My additions were: garlic, Italian herb mix and mushrooms. Totally easy and yummy (and I'm all about easy these days, lol). Would certainly make again.
