Tortellini With Chili-Tomato Sauce

"My mom was cleaning out one of her closets and came across several folders full of recipes that she had clipped from magazines and newpapers over the years. I'm not sure what publication this is from but it's really good. You can use canned jalapenos if you don't have fresh."

  1. Such an easy and tasty dinner! I substituted portabella ravioli as I wanted a veggie meal and thought the portabella's would have a similar feel to meat. Otherwise made to description. Served with garlic bread and a tossed salad.
     
  2. I made this dish as a thank you to loof for adopting me during PAC and it was very good! I topped it with some sliced avocado and freshly ground black pepper. Very simple and very tasty. Thanks for sharing! :)
     
  3. loof this was such a delicious lunch my daughter and I had yesterday. I used jalapeno's fresh from my garden :) but I only added 1 tablespoon, and the heat was perfect. Instead of diced tomatoes I used puree tomatoes that I had in a container in the fridge that needed using up. I also finished the dish with some grated Parmesan . It was yummy. And I will make again
