fast everyday cooking, tortellini with ham and cream sauce

Sometimes, there has to be fast. Not much time to cook, but still feel like eating something good on. Specifically: On a large plate of steaming pasta with a delicious Sößchen. In that case I do this recipe. I buy good fresh pasta from the refrigerator and simmering to a quick ham and cheese cream sauce. So simple. And still so good. A quick heart and soul.


I got a little bit about whether I should post this recipe here. It's as plain and simple, everyday kitchen just right. My friend meant when I raised the question while eating in the room: "Well, maybe if you had the tortellini homemade ..." I did but then decided to post. Because the blog also myself to remember good recipes that I cook again could, even if they are still so simple. And because I own it certainly guess if I find in other blogs all the wonderful, sophisticated, sometimes very complex recipes, find a piece of everyday cuisine. Even for every day can be a bit of inspiration not hurt.

How you look in that, dear reader? For or against (one) everyday cuisine in blogs?
