Quick Tuna Tortellini Gratin
What i like most about this recipe (other than the fact it's quick and easy) is how many tasty variations there are. You can use prepackaged alfredo sauce or make your own, or change it by using a cheese sauce or even tomato sauce. You can change the vegetable too!!
Steps
Preheat oven to broil.
Cook tortellini according to package directions and add the broccoli florets during the last 4 minutes of cooking.
Drain and return to pan.
Add alfredo sauce and tuna and mix well.
If you are using the dry-packed tuna , break up large chunks as you stir.
Cook over medium heat until thoroughly heated , stirring occasionally.
Add garlic after the addition of sauce and tuna , if desired.
Spoon mixture into an ungreased shallow casserole dish.
Sprinkle bread crumbs over top of casserole and dot with butter or drizzle with oil.
Broil casserole 4 to 6 inches from heat for about 3 minutes or until the topping is golden brown.
