just tried this recipe on company. It was easy to make and everyone loved it! Will definitely keep in our rotation now. I had turkey bacon already and did add more peas.

I really liked this and I loved how easy it was to prepare. Next time I would add some more spices and make it a bit more flavorful, but overall it was a great recipe.

This is by far my favorite recipe so far on kraft. but i changed it up a bit, instead of bacon i used mushrooms with the peas. and i cooked the tortellini in low-sodium chicken broth instead of plain water- gives it a little more flavor. i highly recommend you try this one!
