One Pan Tortellini with Sausage

 You can find this quick and easy one-pan recipe here at Salt & Lavender website. It comes together quickly and is delicious. You can use sausage links that you slice up, or use ground sausage, either mild or hot sausage, whatever suits your preference. 





12-16 ounces of ground Italian sausage, either hot or mild
minced garlic, to taste
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 (9 ounce) bag refrigerated cheese tortellini, whatever variety you prefer - I use the Rana brand of 5-cheese
2 cups loosely packed fresh baby spinach, trimmed of stems
salt and pepper, to taste
freshly grated Parmesan cheese, to taste

1. Brown the sausage in a skillet over medium-high heat, drain the fat if there is a lot. 

2. Add the garlic, chicken broth, diced tomatoes, heavy cream, and tortellini. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until the tortellini is cooked through and the sauce has reduced. The sauce will thicken somewhat from the tortellini 

3. Stir in the spinach, and allow it to wilt. Season with salt and pepper to taste, if needed. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
