Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 10.6 ounces Italian sausages (crumbled, see note)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 1 (14 fluid ounce) can diced tomatoes (with juices)
  • 1/2 cup heavy/whipping cream
  • 1 (9 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 2 cups loosely packed fresh baby spinach
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)
  • Freshly grated parmesan cheese (to taste)

Instruction

  • Take the sausage meat out of the casings and crumble it into a skillet. Cook it over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until it's browned. Drain the fat and leave the sausage in the pan.
  • Add the garlic, chicken broth, diced tomatoes, cream, and tortellini. Cook for 5-7 minutes or until the tortellini is cooked and the sauce has reduced to your liking. Cooking the tortellini in the sauce helps thicken it (it releases starch).
  • Stir in the spinach and let it wilt. Season with salt & pepper as needed and serve with fresh parmesan sprinkled over top.
