Cheesy Tortellini Bake
Olive oil or Pam spray for baking dish.
2 cups of sauce or {1 jar}
1/3 cup Italian style sweet mascarpone cheese {This is found in the deli section} It is pricey so I would recommend ricotta or cottage cheese to make this dish more frugal.
parsley leaves to taste
thyme leaves to taste
1 pound package of cheese tortellini
Shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil an 8 by 8 by 2-inch baking dish.
Whisk the sauce, mascarpone OR other cheese of choice, cheese, parsley and thyme in a large bowl to blend. Cook the tortellini in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 2 minutes. Drain. Add the tortellini to the sauce and toss to coat. Transfer the tortellini mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top the mixture with the mozzarella and Parmesan. COVER and bake until the sauce bubbles and the cheeses on top melt, about 20 minutes in a preheated oven.
