Instructions

  1. Pre-heat oven or toaster oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook tortellini via package instructions.
  3. In a small baking dish, coming tortellini with enchilada sauce and stir to coat.
  4. Top with a hearty sprinkling of grated cheese and bake on center rack for 15-20 minutes or until hot and bubbly.
  5. While the tortellini bakes, chop your veggies + toppings and set aside.
  6. Once the pasta is ready to be scarfed, remove from oven and plate. Top with a mountain of all your favorite toppings! You can even set them out taco-bar style and customize it as you go! I love mine with fresh cilantro and homemade pico de gallo!

Notes

  • Feeling cheesy? I used a combination of cheddar and mozzarella to top my tortellini but feel free to use your favorites! A Mexican blend of cheeses would be great and as a combination of pepper jack and cheddar would rock too. Have fun with it!
