Easy PorkChop Recipes: Pork Alfredo Tortellini

Pork Alfredo Tortellini

 

As a busy wife and mother, I am not only frugal with my pocket book but I am frugal with my time. I like to grocery shop only twice a month so that I am not tempted to buy things I do not need making random stops for one or two things. That is why I love shopping at Aldi . They allow me to stock up on my basics, purchase fruits and vegetables, dairy, and fresh meat. Last week we picked up a pack of Pork Chops which I cooked for dinner in the crock pot. It was a going to be a long week so I cooked the whole pack thinking I could make a second meal out of the leftovers. However when I went to the fridge,I found only 3 pork chops left. Someone had gotten hungry and eaten one or two. I was now left with a dilemma. How do you feed 6 people with only 3 pork chops? I did and so can you!

This Easy PorkChop Recipes allowed me to feed all 6 of my family members with only 3 pork chops. They all loved it and asked when I was making it again. Thanks to my stocking my cupboards with essentials from Aldi.  I was ready to create this delicious Pork Alfredo Tortellini and have dinner on the table before any expected it.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 Leftover Pork Chops You can also substitute Left over Pork Tenderloin
  • 2 bags of Aldi's Cheese Tortellini
  • 2 Jars Aldi's Alfredo Sauce
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Parmesan Cheese
  • Vegetable of Your Choice

Instructions
 

  • Remove Pork from bones. (If using Boneless or Pork Tenderloin you will skip this step.)
  • Cut up Pork into Bite Size Pieces.
  • While cutting up Pork, Bring a large pot of salted water to boil.
  • When Water begins to boil,Drop in Tortellini and cook according to instructions on the bag.
  • Drain and Set Aside.
  • Combine Pork and Alfredo Sauce and bring to a light simmer,stirring frequently.
  • While this is heating, I salt and pepper to taste.
  • Cook your vegetable while the sauce is heating up also.
  • Once the Pork and Sauce are heated, gently stir in the Tortellini coating evenly.
  • Serve on plates and top with Parmesan Cheese and side of vegetables.

This recipe is great because you can easy switch it up if you have different leftover protein. Easily substitute chicken or beef and if you don’t have Alfredo Sauce you can substitute a Pesto or Spaghetti Sauce. The key is putting together a creation your family will love. In our family my husband mixes his vegetables right in while my daughter prefers to eat them separate. There is no right or wrong way when sitting down to dinner as a family.
