Chicken Tortellini

Family Friendly Meals Series Day 4

Ingredients
• Package of chicken tortellini, I get the family-sized one sold in the deli case at Stop & Shop (they're fresh, not frozen)
• one sweet yellow onion
• four medium sized apples, I used gala
• butter
• honey
• fresh ground black pepper

Step by Step Instructions
• Preheat oven to 400 and put a pot of water on the stove to boil the tortellini in and set the burner on high.
• Chop up the onion and two of the apples. Spread them on a baking sheet.
• Melt a half a stick of butter and add 3-4 tbsp honey (to your level of sweetness).
• Using a basting brush, baste the onion and apple with the honey butter.
• Put this in the oven and roast for 25 mins.
• Put the tortellini in the boiling water so that it will be done just as the apple/onion mixture is coming out of the oven.
• While the pasta is boiling, slice up the remaining apples for the kids.
• After draining the tortellini, set some aside for the kids and just top those with butter and salt. Top the remaining pasta with the onion/apple mixture and season with fresh ground pepper.

Enjoy!
