"My family loves this with a loaf of crusty French bread and green beans," relates Rita Perez of Roseville, California. She sometimes warms the savory supper in the slow cooker, but you'll find that it comes together very quickly on the stovetop.

Ingredients

  • 1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
  • 1 package (15 ounces) refrigerated marinara sauce
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced Italian tomatoes, undrained
  • 1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

Directions

  1. Cook tortellini according to package directions.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in marinara sauce, tomatoes and mushrooms. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until mushrooms are tender.
  3. Drain tortellini; stir into skillet. Sprinkle with cheese. Remove from the heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
