Quick and Easy Six Cheese Tortellini Bake

A rich and creamy tortellini casserole, with a gooey cheese crust. Get creative, try mascarpone or ricotta in place of the cream cheese. Or, try smoked mozzarella or fontina on top. This would also be wonderful with wild mushroom tortellini and a jar of alfredo sauce instead of marinara. Adjust the recipe to your taste. Enjoy!
