Cheesy Baked Tortellini
Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis

Ingredients
Olive oil
2 cups marinara sauce
1/3 cup mascarpone cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 pound purchased cheese tortellini
2 ounces thinly sliced smoked mozzarella
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan

Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly oil an 8 by

8 by 2-inch baking dish.

Whisk the sauce, mascarpone cheese, parsley and thyme in a large bowl to blend.
Cook the tortellini in a large pot of boiling salted water until just tender,
about 2 minutes. Drain. Add the tortellini to the sauce and toss to coat. Transfer
the tortellini mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top the mixture with the
smoked mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover and bake until the sauce bubbles and the
cheeses on top melt, about 30 minutes.
