Easy Baked Tortellini

Spread the love
    92    

Easy Baked TortelliniFor nights when you want a family-pleasing meal that is also easy enough for the kids to make in about 5 minutes, this is the one!

With just a handful of ingredients, this is easy on the budget AND your schedule.  It’s also great because you can revamp this recipe with different types of tortellini, or even use refrigerated ravioli, and can also use a variety of sauce options, including marinara, alfredo, or pesto sauces.  It’ll work just about any which way, as long as the pasta has plenty of sauce covering it!

We love this simple recipe so much that we included it in our October Vegetarian Family Favorites Menu Plan.

Ready to try it out?  Let’s go!
