Ingredients

Scale

  • 2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion (chopped)

  • 2 cups grape tomatoes
  • 2 medium zucchini (sliced)
  • 3 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 1/4 cups marinara sauce
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Parmesan cheese, basil, and parsley for topping

Instructions

  1. Boil a large pot of salted water. Cook tortellini as per package directions but stop one minute before the recommended time.
  2. In a sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sauté onion until soft (about 3 minutes). Add corn and cook for another 2 minutes. Stir in tomatoes and cook for an additional 3 minutes. Finally, add zucchini and garlic; sauté until tender (about 6-8 minutes).
