Notes

PRO TIPS FOR BAKED TORTELLINI CASSEROLE

  • Not a fan of Italian sausage? Leave it out or substitute the sausage with ground beef.
  • This tortellini casserole will keep in the fridge for about five days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave for about 2 minutes or until warmed through.
  • Cooking just for two? Cut the ingredients in half and prepare the casserole as instructed in an 8-inch square pan. Or make the whole thing and freeze any leftovers for another night.
  • You can prep easy dinner in advance and freeze it until you’re ready to bake it! To do so, in a freezer friendly baking pan, simply follow the recipe instructions up until where you would bake it. Instead, cover tightly with foil and freeze. To bake, remove from freezer and bake as instructed, adding on an additional 15 minutes or until warmed through.
