Instructions

Cook pasta
1

Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Add 10 cups water and 1 tbsp salt to a large pot (use same for 4 ppl). Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Add tortellini to the pot of boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 2-3 min. Reserve 1/4 cup pasta water (use same for 4 ppl), then drain and return tortellini to the same pot, off heat.

Cook bacon
2

While water boils, cut bacon into 1-inch pieces. Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When hot, add bacon and 2 tbsp water (dbl for 4 ppl) to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until bacon is crispy and water has evaporated, 6-8 min. Remove the pan from the heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate. Set aside, reserving bacon fat in the pan.

Prep
3

While bacon cooks, on a clean surface, roughly chop spinach. Thinly slice mushrooms. Peel, then mince or grate garlic.

Cook mushrooms
4

Heat the same pan (from step 2) with reserved bacon fat over medium-high. When hot, add mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 3-4 min. Season with salt and pepper.

Make sauce
5

Reduce heat to medium. Add crushed tomatoes, garlic, Italian seasoning, reserved pasta water and 1/4 tsp sugar (dbl for 4 ppl) to the pan with mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens slightly, 3-4 min. Transfer sauce, spinach and 1 tbsp butter (dbl for 4 ppl) to the large pot with tortellini. Place over medium heat, then stir until spinach wilts, 1-2 min. Season with salt and pepper.

Finish and serve
6
