Cheese Tortellini With Spinach Goat Cheese

This is a wonderful meal, quick and easy. looks wonderful so it would work for company but easy enough for a work night!!

In a large pot , boil water for tortellini.

Once the water comes to a boil , add salt if desired and cook pasta.

In the meantime , put the pesto , spinach , goat cheese , lemon zest & juice in a large serving bowl.

Drain the tortellini and add to the serving bowl.

Add about cup of the cooking water and toss.

Goal is to melt the cheese and pesto , but not to make a watery sauce.

The sauce should really cling to the pasta , so be careful not to add too much water.

Grind some pepper over the top.

Taste , adjust seasonings and serve.
