20-Minute Tuscan Tortellini with Sausage
A trip to Tuscany a few years ago inspired this 20-Minute Tuscan Tortellini with Sausage dish. I was served a rustic, wholesome bowl of this delicious pasta in a taverna in Tuscany, and I just had to make my own version!
To make this dish, start by sauteing onion and garlic. Add Italian sausage and cook while breaking up. Once semi-cooked, combine with the onion and garlic mixture. Add tomato sauce, diced tomatoes with juices, broth, and half/half. Stir and simmer. Add the tortellini and stir well until the tortellini is submerged in the sauce. Cover and simmer until tender. Stir in spinach and freshly ground black pepper. Serve immediately with freshly shredded Parmesan cheese.
