FoodTok went crazy for this easy dinner win. With over 111 million views (and counting), this recipe has captured the taste buds of millions. But we’ve made it healthier, quicker, and more delicious, as we do! What’s our secret? Beef Stroganoff Seasoning—it gives the sauce an extra oomph of beefy flavour along with the onions, mushrooms, and garlic.

Ingredients

  • 1 pkg (12.5 oz/350 g) tortellini, your choice
  • 1 pkg Beef Stroganoff Seasoning
  • 1⁄2 cup water
  • 1 lb (450 g) lean ground beef
  • 1 can (14 oz/398 ml) unsalted tomato sauce
  • 1⁄2 brick (8 oz/250 g) cream cheese
  • 1⁄2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 425° F.
  2. Cook tortellini according to package directions. Drain.
  3. In a bowl, combine seasoning and water. Set aside.
  4. Cook ground beef in Sauté Pan over medium-high heat until browned, about 3–4 min, using Ground Meat Separator to break up chunks. Drain excess liquid.
  5. Reduce heat to medium. Add reserved seasoning mixture, tomato sauce, and cream cheese. Stir continuously until cream cheese is melted. If sauce is too thick, add water, 2 tbsp at a time, until desired consistency is reached.
  6. Add cooked tortellini to pan; stir until well combined.
  7. Top with mozzarella cheese. Bake 2–3 min or until cheese is melted.
