-
11 oz beef or turkey sausage.
-
9 oz cheese tortellini.
-
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream.
-
14 oz diced tomatoes.
-
2 cups baby spinach.
-
3 cloves garlic minced.
-
1/4 cup chicken broth.
-
Parmesan cheese to taste.
Instructions
-
Brown the crumbled sausage meat in a skillet over medium-high heat.
-
Add garlic broth tomatoes cream and tortellini to the pan.
-
Cook uncovered for 5-7 minutes until pasta is tender and sauce is thick.

Stir in fresh spinach and cook for 1 minute until wilted.
-
Season with salt and pepper then serve immediately.
-
Garnish with freshly grated Parmesan for a professional finish.
Notes

Do not use milk or half-and-half as the tomato acid will cause curdling.
-
Leaving a little sausage fat in the pan adds significant savory depth.
-
Serve immediately as the pasta will continue to absorb sauce as it cools.
