Instructions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add tortelloni and cook until al dente, 2–3 minutes. Reserve 1 cup cooking water. Drain tortelloni, then return to pot off heat and toss with 1 teaspoon oil to prevent sticking. Cover to keep warm until step 5.

Step 4
Heat 1½ tablespoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add broccoli; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and lightly browned in spots, 3–4 minutes. Add ½ teaspoon granulated garlic; cook, about 30 seconds. Transfer broccoli to pot with tortelloni. Add cheese sauce to same skillet over medium heat. Cook, whisking, until sauce is smooth and slightly thickened, 3–4 minutes.
Step 5
Add cheese sauce to pot with tortelloni and broccoli. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until tortelloni is warmed through and coated in sauce, about 1 minute. Serve creamy tortelloni with remaining Parmesan on the side for sprinkling over top. Enjoy!
