This dish is so delicious! The sauce comes out perfectly and mixes so well with the tortellini and it made my house smell fantastic! I could have eaten three plates of this is was so good, definitely something to try if you are looking for something different on pasta night. I used frozen spinach for this, that I drained well but you can also use fresh spinach as well.
