Ingredients:

  • 20 oz frozen cheese tortellini
  • 1 lb frozen Italian meatballs
  • 24 oz marinara sauce

  • 1 cup ricotta cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 tsp dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a 9x13 inch baking dish, combine the frozen tortellini, frozen meatballs, marinara sauce, and diced tomatoes. Stir gently until every piece of pasta is coated in sauce.
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the ricotta cheese, Parmesan cheese, dried Italian seasoning, and garlic salt.
  4. Drop small dollops of the ricotta mixture evenly across the top of the pasta and lightly press them in with the back of a spoon.
  5. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 15 minutes.
  6. Remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the top, and bake for another 10-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
  7. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
