With Easter this Sunday, I decided to share this ham and cheese tortellini to utilize that leftover ham who may have from your Easter meal.
This dish is easy to make, plus it’s all done in one skillet. Who doesn’t love it when you only have one pan to clean after making dinner?
This is a dish that the family loves to have to. It really is a win for everyone!
