Instead of throwing cash at 2 9-oz packages of tortellini, I decided nosotros could only one-half the recipe, together with purpose only ane packet instead for the 2 of us. This left our bellies delightfully stuffed, but even thus didn't utter us out of working on the extra pie inwards the refrigerator a few hours later...
