If you’re looking for some comfort food tonight, look no further than this recipe for a Creamy Italian Sausage Tortellini.

I’ve prepare this dish in our home often. And I’ve been told it taste better than most of the dishes offered in those fancy Italian restaurants. 

This dish is ultimate comfort dish, which offers a place full of delicious Italian flavors.  

Believe it or not but this dish even tastes better the second day, it’s absolutely delicious! 

I have always loved Italian recipes, because tomatoes and cheese are often used and two of my favorite ingredients. 

This dish is similar it taste to a Italian Tortellini soup – the broth. I have that recipe here on the blog, that you can find below. 

Add a dash of fresh parmesan cheese on top to serve and you will be in Italian food heaven!

I also will use Classico Sun-Dried Tomato sauce for this recipe.

It makes it super creamy and adds a element of depth than just plain alfredo would do.

I really like to use “herbed Italian sausage” for this recipe. 

Then I will add a pinch of red pepper flakes which really helps to pick up the flavor.

Notes: Also keep in mind, as with all my recipes. If you want to make more or less, simple adjust the serving size in the ingredients section above and the servings will automatically adjust for you. This recipe can store in the fridge for up to 3 days and or freeze for up to 3 months.
