Cheese filled tortellini covered in this delicious Tomato Bacon Pomodoro Sauce was another favorite for my husband! What is Pomodoro Sauce? It is almost the same as a marinara sauce only not as chunky and due to cooking time, Pomodoro Sauce has more of a deep red color to it. We ate this for our meal and it was so easy and quick to make. The tortellini took 7 minutes to cook and the sauce was cooked in about 10-15 minutes. Now that’s a quick meal! Keep in mind that you can substitute ravioli with the tortellini for another great meal.
