This is a very good quick and tasty meal! Next time I make it I will cut the broccoli into smaller pieces, more like 1-2 times the size of the tortellini and add another 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil.

This was filling and the broccoli was cooked to perfection. I loved the garlic, chilli, parmesan, zesty olive oil to bring it all together, there just wasn't quite enough of it!
