- 2 tablespoons basil chopped

Instructions

- Next, add half of the tortellini in one layer and top with half of the cream cheese, then pour half of the marinara sauce on top.
- Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of chopped basil, half of the mozzarella cheese, and half of the parmesan cheese.
- Repeat the layering process with the rest of tortellini, cream cheese, marinara sauce, basil, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese.
- Cover the casserole with aluminum foil and bake for 25-30 minutes.
- Remove the foil, and bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese turns golden.
- Garnish with more basil before serving.
Notes
- You can use fresh refrigerated tortellini or frozen cheese tortellini to make this casserole.
- Dried tortellini will need to be cooked in advance.
- Frozen tortellini does not need to be thawed, but you may need to add a few additional minutes to the baking time.
- Bring the cream cheese to room temperature. You want it to be very soft, so it is easy to spread.
- Make a double batch and prepare a second casserole to freeze for an easy meal on another day.
- This casserole is perfect for sharing with friends and makes a simple holiday meal.
- Use ingredients you have on hand, such as leftover vegetables or meat.
- Storage - leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 5 days.
