Tortellini’s are easily found in your local grocery store in your freezer section for quicker recipe completion, or you can take on the task of making your own tortellini’s from scratch. Make sure to look up a good recipe that includes fresh ingredients to hold up to the pre-made tortellini. 

This Cheesy Shrimp Tortellini Alfredo Skillet has just a handful of ingredients that are usually readily available in our homes making this a perfect meal to whip up after a long day. 

What should I serve with this dish?

We recommend some homemade garlic bread to soak up all your extra sauce and add another dimension of texture and level to your dish. If you would like to go the healthier route we suggest a fresh caesar salad with balsamic dressing to cut the heavy flavor in the Cheesy Shrimp Tortellini Alfredo Skillet. 

How long do leftovers keep in the fridge?

Since this dish includes dairy and seafood we highly recommend eating this dish within a day or so, possibly three but no longer than that. Seafood does not keep for a long period of time and you want to enjoy it while every ingredient is still robust and fresh. 

Here are the ingredients needed for the Cheesy Shrimp Tortellini Alfredo Skillet. 

1 pound package of cheese tortellini pasta, cooked and drained

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined

3 tbsp. salted butter

1 Roma tomato, diced
