HOW DO YOU MAKE CHEESE TORTELLINI IN MEAT SAUCE?
This recipe starts with a super simple meat sauce , which consists of ground beef , garlic , onion and marinara sauce. Using store bought marinara sauce saves a ton of time because you won’t have to sit and wait for your sauce to simmer all day. The meat sauce is tossed with cooked cheese tortellini. Add a sprinkle of parsley and parmesan cheese , then serve and enjoy!
My middle son has basketball practice at varying times in the evenings and so I usually need something quick to feed him the moment he walks in or something that will taste just as good if it has to wait awhile.
