An easy and simple recipe for a quick pasta dinner. Tortellini with zucchini and tomatoes<\/strong> is my favorite one-pot dish this summer. It’s a great idea for dinner for the whole family for $10 in 15 minutes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You only need tomatoes, zucchini, onions and tortellini to make it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can put them in a lunchbox and take them with you to work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this recipe, you can use any tortellini, e.g. with meat, prosciutto or ricotta. You can use either fresh or dried tortellini.
Dried tortellini takes longer to cook (10-15 minutes), so if you choose dried pasta, I recommend frying the dish over low heat, covered, for about 7 minutes and then remove the lid so that the water can evaporate.
If you choose fresh tortellini (refrigerated) you do not need to cover the pan, pasta will be ready after 5-7 minutes. It is important that you stir the pasta from time to time so that it cooks evenly. The dish will be ready when the water in the pan evaporates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When using dried tortellini, remember that it will double in volume during cooking, so add it to the recipe by half as much as fresh tortellini – 125g.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you use ready-made broth, be careful with the amount of salt. It is best to add salt to the dish at the end of cooking, when the pasta has already absorbed the salt from the broth. Try the pasta and if it is not salty enough you can add more salt. Thanks to this, you won’t oversalt your dinner ;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you don’t like to chop onions, you can throw them into the chopper together with garlic, thanks to which you will definitely avoid tears \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dry white wine adds acidity and makes zucchini not bland, but you can replace it with a little lemon juice or a few drops of balsamic vinegar. You can also add more tomatoes, which will give a little acid to the sauce.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want, at the end of frying, you can add a tablespoon of butter to the pasta to turn up the flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following proportions make about 4 lunch portions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
