Well I just said goodbye to my family and I'm a bit sad, so I thought saying hello to my food friends might cheer me up! A huge Internet hug to all of you for such sweet well wishes with my family, we had such a wonderful time and ate SO much incredible food, which I will share with you in the near future. I'm going to do my very best in the next few days to catch up with your blogs, because I know I don't want to miss anything!
This baked tortellini was another invention of necessity after realizing that my grocery supply was down. However, I did have my bottomless bag of tortellini from Costco and a Hillshire Farms sausage (just for you Donna!). This dish was absolutely delicious and disappeared fast, I was actually sad to discover that my husband had gotten to the leftovers before I had. Initially I didn't plan to bake it because we were starving and didn't want to wait. But I'm really glad I did, it gave the tortellini time to soak up that much more flavor and you got a nice melty bubbly layer of cheese on top. I can't wait to make this dish again, it's so easy, and fantastic with some crusty bread and a green salad.
Please keep in mind that all measurements are complete guesstimates as I don't measure when I cook, so trust yourself and do what tastes good!
Baked Sausage and Tortellini
Ingredients
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 kielbasa sausage, cubed into 1 inch cubes (I used a turkey kielbasa)
3 cups cooked cheese tortellini
1 jar favorite pasta marinara or spaghetti sauce
Italian seasonings
fennel seeds
garlic salt
1-2 cups mozzarella
1/2 cup shredded Parmesan
Directions
Heat olive oil in large skillet. Saute onions and garlic until soft. Add sausage and cook for 1-2 minutes until sausage is browned. Add sauce, pasta and seasonings to desired taste. Mix until combined and cooked through.
Spoon into a sprayed 8x8 baking pan. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese and then layer mozzarella evenly on top of pasta. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown.
