Cheesy Shrimp Tortellini

 

Tortellini is one of my family's favorite.  And of course, shrimp. 

Shrimp pairs well with Tomatoes, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Carrots, Bell Peppers, Asparagus, and Zucchini.  Serve them on the side or toss them in with your pasta and sauce.

1 lb. shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 Tbsp salted butter
1 Roma tomato, sliced
