Quick Tortellini and Mince Bake

Ingredients

Serves 2-3

  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 350g mince (soya, pork or beef)
  • 3 tsp tomato puree
  • 300g tinned chopped tomatoes
  • 2 tsp dried oregano
  • 200g spinach and ricotta tortellini
  • 60g mozzarella, grated

Total time: 25 mins

Method

Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Heat the oil in an ovenproof frying pan and add the soya mince. Fry for a few minutes before adding the tomato purée, tomatoes and oregano, adding a splash of water if it looks a little dry.

Place the tortellini in a large bowl and pour over a full kettle of boiling water. Leave it to sit for 2 minutes then drain. Gently stir the tortellini into the mince mixture.

Scatter over the mozzarella and bake in the oven for 15 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly then serve.

This bake will keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. It also freezes well and can be reheated in the microwave.
