Ingredients

Scale
  • 18–20 ounces fresh tortellini (three-cheese or spinach and ricotta recommended)
  • 1 pound fresh broccoli florets
  • 24–28 ounces marinara sauce
  • 1.5 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 0.5 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2–3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3–4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • Pinch of salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1 cup pre-cooked ground beef (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large, rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Place the fresh tortellini on the prepared sheet pan and add the fresh broccoli florets, ensuring they are spread out evenly.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil and add minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Toss everything gently to coat.
  4. Pour the marinara sauce over the mixture and toss again to ensure everything is evenly coated. Spread the mixture into a single layer on the sheet pan.
  5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, checking occasionally until the tortellini is tender and the broccoli is crisp-tender.
  6. Remove from the oven and sprinkle shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the bake.
  7. Return to the oven and bake for another 5-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly, optionally broiling for the last minute for extra browning.
  8. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving, garnishing with fresh chopped basil or parsley if desired.
