Last Saturday I swung by my local farmers’ market—those little corn ears and fat zucchini were calling my name. By the time I got home, I couldn’t resist tossing them into a simple pasta dish. The result? A bowl of Cheese Tortellini with Summer Vegetables that’s bright, comforting and ready in half an hour. Seriously, it tasted like sunshine on a plate.
