Pesto tortellini - what to toss it in?

I recently purchased pesto tortellini from Trader Joe's.  What would you toss it in?  I was thinking of heating up some olive oil & then adding some fresh parmesan...

Re: Pesto tortellini - what to toss it in?

  • brown butter or garlic and oil. you could also do a fresh chunky light tomato sauce.

  • Oh, the brown butter sounds awesome!  Olive oil and garlic or a creamy garlic sauce would be great too.
  • it might be nice to make your own pesto and add. Or keep the olive oil and add grilled chicken, roasted red peppers and chopped fresh mozzarella. Yum! Now I want the pasta you bought........

  • All great ideas - thanks!  My basil is just starting to grow & I think I will have enough to snip off & enjoy with this.  If only I had some fresh tomatoes - roasting some would be perfect with this!
  • Pesto brings an oiliness, so I'd avoid a butter sauce.   I'd probably do a cream sauce.

  • My first thought was a light alfredo.
