- 2 cups cheese tortellini
- 1 cup Alfredo sauce
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the tortellini dish.
- Cook Tortellini: Cook the cheese tortellini according to the package instructions until al dente, then drain well to remove excess water.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked tortellini with Alfredo sauce, grated Parmesan cheese, and garlic powder, stirring until the pasta is evenly coated.
- Arrange in Baking Dish: Pour the tortellini mixture into a baking dish, spreading it out evenly for uniform cooking and topping it with the breadcrumbs.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the sauce is bubbling around the edges. Serve immediately for best taste.
Notes
- Use freshly grated Parmesan for the best flavor.
- If you prefer a crispier topping, lightly toast the breadcrumbs before sprinkling.
- You can add cooked vegetables or grilled chicken for extra heartiness.
- Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and can be reheated in the oven.
