📝 Preparation Steps

Preheat oven to 400F.

Cook Meat

Cook ground beef with salt and pepper in a large, heavy pot over medium high heat. Continually stir and break up pieces until browned and cooked through. Drain excess grease, and turn heat to low.

Add red pasta sauce and diced tomatoes with juices to the pot. Add garlic, oregano, basil, onion powder, and sugar. Stir to incorporate. Remove from heat.

diced tomatoes (with all juices)28 ozgarlic (minced)4 clovesdried oregano2 teaspoonsdried basil2 teaspoonsonion powder1 tablespoon

Layer

Spread one-third of the sauce mixture evenly onto the bottom of a 9x11" casserole pan or similar sized baking dish. Arrange half of the frozen tortellini over the sauce. Sprinkle one-third of both the mozzarella and parmesan over the tortellini. Repeat layers. You should end with the last third of sauce on top, followed by the last third of cheeses.

Bake

Spray a sheet of aluminum foil with oil, and lay the oil-side down loosely over casserole. Bake ⏱️ 40 minutes for frozen tortellini; ⏱️ 30 minutes for refrigerated ones. Uncover and bake another ⏱️ 10 minutes, or until cheese turns bubbly and golden.
