Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook chopped bacon until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, leaving some bacon fat in the pan.
Add asparagus to the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Add peas and garlic, cooking for another 1-2 minutes.
Reduce heat to low and pour in the heavy cream. Stir in Parmesan cheese and black pepper. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.
Add the cooked tortellini and bacon back into the pan. Gently stir to combine and coat the pasta with the sauce.
Adjust seasoning with salt if needed and serve warm, garnished with extra Parmesan if desired.
