Cooking with Andrea: Sausage Cheese Tortellini!

This Cheese Tort and Sausage Alfredo is the perfect dish to share with the whole family.

  • 1 (9 oz) package of cheese tortellini
  • 1 lb hot sausage
  • 2 Tbsp butter
  • 2 Tbsp flour
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 cup milk
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • 4 oz cream cheese, cubed
  • ½ cup grated parmesan
  • Salt and pepper

Cook tortellini according to the package;  set aside.

In a large pan or skillet cook the sausage until cooked through, slice, and set aside. Leave all those juices from the sausage in the pan, add butter and melt. Add garlic and cook for about a minute. Then add flour and stir till mixture gets brown.
Slowly add milk and cream, whisk for 2 to 3 minutes until thickened.

Stir in cheeses until melted. If it’s too thick just add a little more milk. Pour over torts and sausage and serve  immediately. Get ready for that “POW” effect.
