    What do you get when you mix tortellini, eggplant, Italian sausage and chunks of mozzarella? Well, you get a tortellini casserole of course! I used mild Italian sausage made from chicken instead of pork. In a casserole you really couldn’t tell and for those that don’t eat pork or are trying to make healthier choices I found it worked just fine. This one needs a little prep-ahead-of-time planning because of the eggplant. Perhaps a good weekend recipe?
