Ingredients

  • 500 g Tortellini I used 2 x 250g packs
  • 240 g Spinach
  • 150 g Grated mozzarella

For the sauce:

  • 500 g Passata
  • 2 tsp Garlic granules
  • 2 tsp Dried oregano
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 2 tbsp Tomato puree
  • Sea salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the grill to HIGH.
  • In a large pan of salted boiling water cook the tortellini according to pack instructions (usually 5 minutes).
  • Mix up the sauce ingredients.
  • 1 minute before the end of the pasta cooking time, add the spinach to the boiling water. Drain the pasta and spinach (make sure you drain well so that the finished dish isn't watery).
  • Put the pasta and spinach into a shallow casserole dish or roasting tin, pour over the sauce, cover with the mozzarella.
  • Pop under the grill for 5 minutes until golden.

Notes

Type of pasta: You can use the dry or fresh fridge kind from the supermarket. I use 2 x 250g packs of fresh Spinach and Ricotta Tortellini.
This is a vegetarian recipe but if you’d prefer some meat, you can just choose a different tortellini filling in the supermarket (eg. ham and cheese, chicken and bacon).
Serve with: You can serve this up on its own for ease, but if you’d prefer to add some sides, stick to a simple green side salad and perhaps some garlic bread.
