Baked Tortellini - olive oil

Method

• Preheat oven to 375 F.
• Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat.
• Add the ground turkey, breaking it up with a spatula or wooden spoon as it cooks.
• Add the minced garlic and Italian seasoning to the turkey.
• Cook until the ground turkey is done, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add the sauce to the ground turkey and stir to combine.
• Add in the spinach and stir until it starts to wilt.
• Turn off the heat and add the uncooked tortellini to the sauce and stir to combine.
• Pour the pasta and sauce into a baking dish.
• I used a large oval baker but an 8x8 or 9x9 should be fine as well.
• Top with the mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses.
• Cover the dish with foil and bake at 375 F for about 15 minutes.
• Remove the foil and continue to bake for another 5-10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
• Remove from oven.
• Let it stand a few minutes before serving.
• Notes: This recipe calls for ground turkey, but you could easily substitute ground beef.
• To make it even easier, skip the meat and just combine the tortellini in the baking dish with sauce and the spinach and bake.
