Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 pound refrigerated cheese tortellini
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 24 ounce jar marinara sauce
- 0.5 cup water
- 0.5 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
- Add the chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
- Pour in the marinara sauce and water. Add the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Bring the sauce to a simmer, then add the refrigerated tortellini. Stir gently to coat the tortellini with the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the tortellini are slightly tender.
- Pour the tortellini and sauce mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
- Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the edges are lightly browned.
- Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Serve hot with a side salad and crusty bread for a complete meal.
