Cheese Tortellini with Spinach and Slow Roasted Tomatoes

I love this cheese tortellini dish with spinach and slow roasted tomatoes. I always keep a couple bags of cheese tortellini in my freezer for emergencies. It comes in handy when I’m busy and/or feeling lazy. I love the simplicity of this dish. It’s so tasty. So, if you are looking for a meal that can be made in minutes, try this recipe.

Ingredients
½ tablespoon salt – to add to boiling water
1 bag frozen cheese tortellini (16 oz. size)
