I am a widow, and have a hard time cooking for one. (It just seems like too much trouble) So I seek out wonderful, quick, easy recipes, so that I can eat a real meal, instead of a can of soup. This fits the bill, and I'm sure I could cut it in half easily. Thank you for yet another great idea.
I agree that's it's so hard to cook for one person. This is really good reheated. If you're alright with eating leftovers, you can just reheat in the microwave for a few seconds. My philosophy is "Cook once, eat twice". Melissa and I had two meals from this so if you cut the recipe in half you should still get two servings. I hope some of our recipes can provide you with good, homecooked, delicious meals. Happy New Year.
Would be nice if it could go into a retail store and buy it some people don't have the means to shop online to buy books and other stuff videos offer @@tomwyant9297
This looks delicious, Tom! And you mentioned empty nesters. I remember when our sons all grew up and left our home for college and then for good when they married. We missed our kids too. More than I thought I would. More recently my husband died of brain cancer so now my house is silent at times. I really long for the days when my household was busy with life going on. I really appreciate recipes like this bc it’s easy and looks so good. I don’t like complicated food just for me. God bless y’all!
Perfect timing! I am going to use the frozen Lobster Ravioli I have on hand. It’s deep winter here in Vermont, so hot pasta is a fav. PS Tom- you remind me of my late Dad…so comforting to watch you and Melissa.
I also have some lobster ravioli. I bought it at Costco the other day. I saw this recipe and knew I have to give it a try with the lobster ravioli! I wonder if it would taste good if I put a little extra garlic in there. I love garlic. ~Sharon from Florida
From one retired teacher to another, I love your exact verbal directions and your posting of the written recipes! Love your channel! And my husband was from West Virginia and I love hearing that West Virginia accent!
After living in KY for 52 years you would think my West Virginia accent would have disappeared. It hasn't! I've decided it's in my DNA and will be there forever. LOL!
A little bit of the pasta water helps to thicken your sauce and make it a little richer. I promise it wwont water it down it only makes it better. My family is very italian and my grandmother would tell you dont throw that water down the drain until you thicken your sauce. Mind you it is just a small amount of the water. Try this with your spaghetti also. The salt water makes it taste wonderful.😊
love to watch you cook. i miss my husband because he started cooking and i didn't do a thing but clean his mess. it was so wonderful when he cooked. you are so clean and neat.
A trick I found for avoiding corn starch lumps in your gravy or liquid without whisking is to put your corn starch in the measuring cup first then add a little liquid and make a slurry then add the rest of your liquid
Made this for dinner tonight. It was a winner! I didn't have just Basil, so used my Italian Seasoning and it worked great! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
You two have managed to put on yet another mouth-watering show! 🇺🇸 👍☕After adding the tortellini to the sauce, I like to put a lid on it and allow it to rest for 15 minutes, or longer.
About a month accidentally came across your cooking videos. Love them. Have been watching you every time you’re on. Am definitely going to make this dish. Thank you for sharing. You do a good job preparing the food and your wife is excellent on the camera.
This has got to be delicious. I think I’d like to have shrimp with mine.. a side salad and crusty bread. Okay, I’m hungry now. I’ll add these ingredients to my grocery list. Thank you Tom and Melissa.. I hope 2024 is the best year yet. Looking forward to some changes this year. God bless you both. 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Just made this for a neighborhood gathering. It got fantastic reviews! 👒 Hat's off to you 🎉! I'm home writing down the recipe, for myself, and for a Friend! Oh😊 & subscribing to your marvelous channel! Thanks again!❤
made this tonight, had a salad with some hot bread and it was delicious.....Gonna try the Russian chicken recipe this week.....by the way, found the Russian dressing at Walmart...bought 2....
Well, here I am again!! I just LOVE adding your recipes to my repertoire!! I am the social chairman of my local PEO chapter. We have just scheduled a Mama Mia Italian evening with our husbands for October! It will be so fun to take this recipe and the Baked Ravioli Casserole as my contribution!! Something so different than the “regular” Italian. Recipes!!
I’ve never known how to cook tortellini. Thank you. Now, I’m thinking about how to stretch it either meatballs or chicken meatballs mixed in. Great to see you.
Not a good idea to be watching these videos while hungry 😄 Thank you guys for sharing this recipe! Looks delicious and I bet my wife will love this! Happy New Year!!
I've got to quit watching your dinner videos when I get home from work! Always makes me want to run out and get whatever I may not have and make it! Looks delicious! By the way...made your cabbage on New Year's Day along with some Hoppin Jon and it was a hit! My Son took some to work for lunch the next day and my other son was eating it when I got home! Keep up the good work!
I made this tonight for dinner. My family loved it. I added bacon & mushrooms to it and it was wonderful; I also doubled the recipe. Have a great weekend
Just the two of us now, we do this sometimes and you reminded me.. Its delicious. Its also adaptable, a pinch of chilli flakes and/or grated cheese and/or some canned tuna (we prefer the one in veg oil and drain off about half the oil but if there's lostsa yummy butter you could fully drain) Thank you sooo much for these recipes! I have problems getting Ranch mix here in UK though. Bless you both.
I appreciate the way you state the ingredients & amounts prior to cooking. It makes following you so easy. Many people don’t do this and it can be frustrating. Thanks again!!
Hello from Washington state. Thank you so much for your videos I LOVE them and you and you wife are great! Your videos are down to earth and easy to understand 😊
Grew up in Clarksburg, WV. Home of the Italian Heritage Festival. Being an Irish family member I had never seen these made fresh. My friends Nonnies made these so quickly, they just piled up on the counters. So delish.
I make this and add some fresh spinach to the dish. I do love tortellini. Delicious! I make ghee and let it 'burn' just a little. It gives it a nutty flavor.
For the sauce: butter, fresh chopped garlic, fresh parsley chopped, a little white wine and salt, simmer and reduce, pour over Tortellini and mix, top off with Parmigiana, voila!
Looks so good! Thanks for sharing! The chicken stock thickened with corn starch was unexpected but is such a great idea! Much better than just butter and garlic! ❤
Well you have done it again Tom!! Another fabulous recipe!! I can't wait to make it! Thanks for recipes and tips. Hope y'all had a wonderful New Years. I look forward to all the future has to offer with y'all. You both are at the top of my list. Oh yes, we enjoyed several of your recipes for the holidays they we great!! God bless y'all 🤗🥰😇🙏🙏🙏
Oh my! I made this for supper tonight & boy was it delicious! I will definitely keep this in my meal rotation! Thanks for the recipe! Happy New Year! 🎉 🎉
Ohhh one of my favorite meals!! Love cheese tortellini and garlic sauce and parm!! Thanks for sharing your recipe for it!! God bless and happy New Year!!
Use all heavy cream & don't use the corn starch....or just use some Cream Cheese .....anything is better than cornstarch....can even use Chia seeds.....it is a thickening also and I don't find it has a taste.....I use it in oatmeal or anything else I need to thicken ....as I hate cornstarch....
I have to drive almost 5 miles away to get my tortellini. But it's always worth it. When I watch you cook and ther favorite cooks I'm always conscious of how far NZ is from cooking and baking products that the rest of the world uses. I pounce on new products or new gourmet deli stores that open.
I am a widow, and have a hard time cooking for one. (It just seems like too much trouble) So I seek out wonderful, quick, easy recipes, so that I can eat a real meal, instead of a can of soup.
This fits the bill, and I'm sure I could cut it in half easily.
Thank you for yet another great idea.
I agree. After watching these shows for a few months, I've found many recipes that fit an Independent Living lifestyle.
I agree with you on the quick and easy home-cooked meals. Tom and Melissa are wonderful people.
Tortellini is one of my faves. It will be filling as well as a good leftover!😊😊
I agree that's it's so hard to cook for one person. This is really good reheated. If you're alright with eating leftovers, you can just reheat in the microwave for a few seconds.

Ditto 👍
Omg. If you would put all your recipes in a cookbook, it would sell like hotcakes!
I'm working on it. Thanks for the encouragement!
Would be nice if it could go into a retail store and buy it some people don't have the means to shop online to buy books and other stuff videos offer @@tomwyant9297
Please write a book!!!
I worked on it for almost 8 hours yesterday. I’m hoping to have it ready by this fall. Thanks for the encouragement!
This looks delicious, Tom! And you mentioned empty nesters. I remember when our sons all grew up and left our home for college and then for good when they married. We missed our kids too. More than I thought I would. More recently my husband died of brain cancer so now my house is silent at times. I really long for the days when my household was busy with life going on.
I really appreciate recipes like this bc it’s easy and looks so good. I don’t like complicated food just for me. God bless y’all!
I think since I live alone I would make half of this recipe. It sounds delicious!
When we were kids, it was our job to grate the Parmesan when we had spaghetti. This looks delicious and I would definitely eat too much.
Perfect timing! I am going to use the frozen Lobster Ravioli I have on hand. It’s deep winter here in Vermont, so hot pasta is a fav.
PS Tom- you remind me of my late Dad…so comforting to watch you and Melissa.
Yum

This sounds really good, will have to add it to my list. Thanks for your hard work.
I made this today. I added shrimp to it, 13:44 and my husband and I both loved it.
Thanks for the suggestion I love lobster.

We think it makes a delightful meal. We are so glad you and your family enjoyed it.

Thank you so much! We really do appreciate that you are watching!
Tom and Melissa both do such a good job. Love how Tom walks us through the recipes, and Melissa does a great job with the videography.
Had this with shrimp and broccoli! Yum!
That tortellini in garlic butter sauce looks so delicious! I will definitely make this.
The addition of some lemon zest & juice makes for a delicious dish too!
I love how kind you are.
We appreciate you so much for watching our channel. We hope you enjoy the tortellini.
What a wonderful and de Lucious dish!! Can’t wait to put this on the table! Thanks Tom and Melissa for sharing! Love you guys! God bless! 💕🤗🙏🏻

Not a good idea to be watching these videos while hungry 😄 Thank you guys for sharing this recipe! Looks delicious and I bet my wife will love this! Happy New Year!!
I've never had Tortellini. I'm going to try this, thank you.
I have tortellini in the fridge that I need to use up. I wanted to find a recipe without tomatoes...This is PERFECT. Thank you.
I think it looks warm and comforting ☺️ I'll have to give this a try.
That looks amazing ! This will have to be our supper one night this week. Thanks Tom & Melissa.
I've got to quit watching your dinner videos when I get home from work! Always makes me want to run out and get whatever I may not have and make it! Looks delicious!

@@TheKentuckylady717 Not everyone hates cornstarch. You've made it very clear that you don't, but others may love it just the way he made it.
I give it an A+. a must try.
