It has a substitute for sour orange juice - but what is sour orange juice?
Lordy. I live in a sanctuary county so we have a lot of Hispanic products.
Juice from sour oranges is always on our shelves.
(Found this on the net, interesting.

Pineapple is great in a teriyaki marinade. Should work.
Mojo Criollo
Ingredients:
* 1 tablespoon oregano
* 1 garlic bulb
* 1 tablespoon bay leaves
* 1 teaspoon cumin
* 4 ounces water
* 4 teaspoons salt
* 6 ounces orange juice
* 4 ounces pineapple juice
* 2 ounces lemon juice
Instructions:
1. Peel and mash your garlic cloves.
2. Get a large mixing bowl and combine the lemon juice, pineapple juice, orange juice, salt, water, bay leaves, cumin, garlic and oregano. Stir all the ingredients thoroughly in order to evenly distribute the flavors of the spices and herbs. Let the sauce sit for at least an hour before using.
I’d leave out the water and most of the salt and some of the bay. Id let it sit for at least a day or 2.
After readin your recipe post I want a syringe and a large bore pointy needle!
We have a Hispanic store nearby, so I’ll look for it.

Good Tuesday afternoon Jamestown,
I wanted to let you know I made your Chicken Primavera recipe again (used Penne)... It was a huge hit as always! Thank you again for posting.
I’m glad you like it. I think I found it in one of those little pamphlet-recipe books they have at the supermarket checkout, and we’ve enjoyed it many times.
I was invited to a buffet lunch recently where they served a cheese tortellini dish with spinach in what seemed like a Parmesan sauce. Have to find a recipe for that, too.
Tortellini in Parmesan-Cream Sauce with Spinach
ING pound cheese tortellini 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1 clove garlic, minced 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour 1¼ cups heavy cream ½ teaspoon salt ⅓ cup grated Parmesan cheese 5 ounces julienned baby spinach 1 (7-ounce) jar julienned sun-dried tomatoes option
SAUCE Cook/stir melted butter, garlic a min til fragrant. Sprinkle in flour; stir into melted butter (becomes a paste and begins to smell nutty). Slowly whisk in h/cream (mixture is thick and chunky, but will smooth and thin out), then salt and add Parm. Simmer/thicken about 5 min. Stir in spinach (and sun-dried tomatoes option).
ASSEMBLY Add cooked and drained tortellini, gently stirring to coat.
SERVE immediately
That looks exactly like it! - and you stole half of my next thread ;-)
I’s sorry (sob).
It’s ok. The one I found is different...sorta... ;-)
(Sniffle).....I’m feeling a bit better.
You will like the other half ;-)
Sitting at the edge of my computer in anticipation.
I looked on line and there are several recipes for tortellini in Parmesan cream sauce. The Brown Eyed Baker added spinach to her recipe. I wish my posting skills would allow me to post it for you!
This one?

I posted another on this week’s thread; there are a lot of recipes for this, with small differences:

Yes...that’s the one that sounded similar to the one you mentioned! Thank you for posting it!
