Tortellini with a Mushroom and White Wine Sauce

Chris and I usually head to Melting Pot when restaurant week hits our neighborhood, and since we were unable to go this year I decided to bring Melting Pot to us. "So where's the picture of your Melting Pot fondue dinner?" you ask? Well, my fondue was, in all honestly, a fail. Like, a big glob of cheese fail. So I turned to my go-to backup: pasta.
There's lots of cheese packed into this dish, both in the tortellini and in the sauce. I made a basic sauce consisting of white wine and vegetable stock, and then spruced up the flavors with some butter, garlic and onions. Even though we weren't able to recreate Melting Pot at home, I think our alternative plan was a big winner. Enjoy!
