- Cheddar Cheese
- Mozzarella Cheese
- Green Onions
- Sour Cream
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the tortellini and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add a little oil and cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it apart as it cooks.
- Once the beef is cooked, stir in the taco seasoning and diced tomatoes (with their juices). Let it simmer for about 5 minutes.
- Gently fold the cooked tortellini into the beef mixture until well combined.
- In a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, pour half of the tortellini mixture, then sprinkle half of the cheese on top. Repeat with the remaining tortellini mixture and top with the rest of the cheese.
- Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
- Once out of the oven, let it cool for a few minutes. Top with sliced green onions and a dollop of sour cream before serving.
