Ingredients
Oops! Something went wrong. Our team is working on it.
1 pound bulk Italian sausage
1 onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 (24 ounce) jar marinara sauce
1 (14 ounce) can Italian-style diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (9 ounce) package frozen cheese-filled tortellini
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
Directions
Heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Crumble sausage into the hot pan; add onion and green bell pepper. Cook and stir until sausage is completely browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain grease.
Pour marinara sauce and tomatoes over sausage mixture; season with garlic powder and stir. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until tomatoes break down into sauce, 30 to 45 minutes.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook frozen tortellini in boiling water until they float to the top and the filling is hot, 6 to 7 minutes; drain.
Gently fold cooked tortellini into simmering sauce; cook for 5 minutes. Pour tortellini and sauce into a 9×13-inch baking dish; sprinkle the top with mozzarella cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is golden brown, 20 to 30 minutes.
