This looks wonderful! I have to say that I really want to try this one and I think it would be especially awesome using our favorite pasta made with Kamut Khorasan Wheat. It is the best whole wheat we have tried and this recipe looks incredible for it! Thanks for sharing 🙂

Take it from an Italian, if you’re going to use fresh tomatoes, they gotta come from your garden, straight from the vine to your kitchen, or fresh in season from the farmer’s market. It’s really ok and a lot cheaper to use canned tomatoes. Splurge on the San Marzano’s, most supermarkets carry that type, they’re often imported from Italy or Spain and make the sweetest and tastiest sauces. I like to add heat to my sauce as well, and my secret ingredient is sugar. One teaspoon per can used (28 oz size). I just love a simple tomato sauce with any kind of pasta, topped with that parmesan of course. Your tortellini look very yummy.

Oh, I HATE that when all the ingredients aren’t listed up front but show up later in the cooking directions! That’s just poor editing on someone’s part.
