There's something magical about the combination of ham, peas, and tortellini in a creamy sauce. This rendition calls for an extra baking to seal in the flavors and melt the shredded cheese. Add bread and a green salad and you've got dinner!
1 T. olive oil
1/2 c. ham, diced
1/4 c. onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
