Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (16 ounce) package cheese tortellini
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 (8 ounce) package fresh mushrooms, stemmed and sliced
2 tablespoons butter
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil; stir in tortellini and return to a boil. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini float to the top and the filling is hot, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and place into a 9-inch baking pan.

Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until sauce begins to bubble, 7 to 8 minutes.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until sauce begins to brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately.
