A delightful and creamy tortellini dish with a cheesy and savory flavor, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Cook the tortellini in a large pot of boiling water according to the package instructions until al dente.
Stir occasionally to prevent the tortellini from sticking together.
In a separate pan, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, then remove and crumble.
Drain excess fat from the pan to keep the dish lighter.
In the same pan, add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant.
Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Add the cream cheese and milk to the pan, stirring until the cream cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
Use a whisk to ensure the sauce is lump-free.
Stir in the shredded mozzarella cheese and black pepper, cooking until the cheese is melted and the sauce is creamy.
Adjust the seasoning to taste with additional pepper or salt.
Combine the cooked tortellini and crumbled bacon with the sauce, mixing well to coat evenly.
Reserve some bacon for garnishing to add a crispy texture.
Serve the creamy tortellini warm, garnished with extra bacon and a sprinkle of black pepper.
Pair with a side salad for a balanced meal.
