Delicious ! My husband and I loved this dish. I didn't put the bread crumbs on top because we don't care of them but other than that made it as written. Thank you !

This is so easy to make! I made a couple of changes to the recipe. Instead of cheese tortellini I used beef (the cheese tortellini we get here isn't that good) and I didn't put any breadcrumbs on the top. It resulted in a fantastic meal. Best part, the leftovers taste great too.

My hubby gave this one a thumbs up! I didn't have any cheddar cheese soup, so I used spaghetti sauce and it still turned out yummy.

My family really enjoyed this. It was a change for us as I usually serve tortellini with spaghetti or alfredo sauce. I will be making this again!
