1 (10-oz.) package refrigerated reduced-fat Alfredo sauce
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper
1 pound fresh asparagus
1 (20-oz.) package refrigerated cheese-filled tortellini
3 garlic cloves, minced

1
Stir together first 3 ingredients. Snap off and discard tough ends of asparagus; cut into 1-inch pieces.
2
Bring 5 qt. of salted water to a boil; add tortellini, and cook 6 minutes or just until tender. (Pasta should still be firm to bite.) Drain; rinse with cold water, and drain well again. Place in a serving bowl.
3
Saute garlic in hot oil over medium-high heat 1 minute or until garlic is lightly browned. Stir in mushrooms, asparagus, and salt; saute 3 to 5 minutes or until asparagus is crisp-tender. Reduce heat to medium, and stir in Alfredo sauce mixture. Cook 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated.
4
Pour sauce mixture over cooked tortellini; toss gently. Sprinkle with tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
