Tortellini with Simple Sauce

Ingredients:

2 - 9 oz packages of refrigerated tortellini (Suggested: Archer Farms or Buitoni, and flavor works), cooked according to directions (salt water before added pasta) and drained
1 can crushed tomatoes (14.5 oz)
2 cans Italian recipe stewed tomatoes (14.5 oz)
2 cloves garlic, grated
4 ozs mascarpone cheese
2 tsp dried basil
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp thyme
Freshly grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste


Directions:
In a large pot, combine the crushed tomatoes, stewed tomatoes, garlic, Mascarpone, basil, oregano, thyme, and stir over medium heat until the cheese is fully incorporate. Add in the freshly cooked tortellini. Stir. Add salt and pepper to taste. Portion into bowls and top with Parmesan cheese prior to serving.


For thicker sauce: drain the stewed tomatoes. I didn't drain them though and it was great.


Serves: 2 to 4 (Chris and I are hearty eaters and we had a serving left over...if you served it with a salad and some bread you'd definitely be able to stretch it to 4 to 5 people)
