Easy Date Night Tortellini with Spinach and Tomatoes

This easy date night tortellini bowl features stuffed spinach pasta baked golden and crispy with spinach and roasted tomatoes that are bursting with flavor. It doesn’t get much easier or tastier than this one-pot pasta dinner. There’s nothing quite as addictive as stuffed pasta roasted golden in the oven. It’s crispy, crunchy, and yet somehow still soft on the inside and oozing fresh garlic flavors. Imagine all that and then add creamy mildly spicy spinach and oven-roasted tomatoes. It’s a fall-in-love-over vegan pasta date night dinner. But I’m just as happy to make this easy one-pot vegan pasta on weeknights when I want a cozy bowl of comfort food.  Munchyesta.com

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 pack (250g) Vegan Tortellini or Ravioli
  • 2 cloves Garlic Minced
  • 1 cup Spinach Fresh or frozen
  • 2 large Tomatoes or 8 small plum tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp Oregano
  • 2 tsp Dried Basil

  • Pinch of Salt and Pepper
  • 1 bunch Fresh Basil Chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F and grease a baking pan or pie pan.

  • Cook for 15-20 minutes in the oven before removing the lid and cooking for 5 more minutes to give the pasta a golden crispy surface in places. 
    Serve with a garnish of fresh basil and enjoy.

Notes

If you are using frozen spinach I recommend heating it in a pan with garlic, salt, and pepper before cooking it with the pasta. Add any extra liquid from the spinach to the pasta dish.
