One-Pot Cheesy Tortellini and Sausage

Happy Thursday!  Welcome all!  Prayers to those that need them.  Today I'm sharing a recipe that is great for an easy quick and somewhat healthy dinner!  Kids even like it.  It come from the Betty Crocker website (love that place).  Of course the recipe comes with brand names but there is no need to use them.  Hope it works well for you too!

One-Pot Cheesy Tortellini and Sausage

1 lb cooked pork sausage, sliced

1 small yellow onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 jar (25.5 oz) Muir Glen organic pasta sauce tomato basil

1 can (14.5 oz) Muir Glen organic diced tomatoes, undrained

1/2 cup Progresso chicken broth

20 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 oz)

6 fresh basil leaves, chopped (*see note below)

In 12" skillet, cook sliced sausage, onion and garlic 5-7 minutes or until onion softens and sausage starts to brown.

Stir in sauce, tomatoes, chicken broth and tortellini.  Cover and simmer 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tortellini is cooked.

Remove from heat; sprinkle with cheese and basil.  Serve when cheese has melted.

*My Asylum prefers I don't add large amounts of fresh basil in anything so I simply added some dry to the mix for flavor.  Worked out great!
