One Pan Turkey Sausage, Spinach and Marinara Tortellini

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 lb hot or sweet turkey sausages, casings removed
  • 1 (24 oz) jar jar marinara sauce (I like Classico Four Cheese)
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • 3/4 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 (20 oz) pkgs. refrigerated three cheese tortellini
  • 4 cups packed fresh spinach, roughly chopped
  • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 Tbsp chopped fresh basil

Instructions

  • Heat olive oil in an extra-large skillet or a pot over medium-high heat.
  • Add garlic and saute 30 seconds then add sausage break it up a bit and cook, stirring and breaking up sausage occasionally, until sausage has cooked through.
  • Add in marinara sauce, tomatoes, chicken broth and water and bring to a light boil.
  • Add in tortellini, toss and press tortellini down into sauce, reduce heat to medium-low, then cover and simmer until tortellini is cooked through, about 10 minutes, stirring once halfway through.
  • Stir in spinach and parsley, season with pepper to taste (season with salt only if needed, if you used the brand I mentioned you likely won’t need it) and toss gently to allow spinach to cook through and wilt.
  • Stir in basil and serve warm.
