Instructions:
1. Cook Tortellini:
– In a large pot, cook the tortellini according to package instructions. Drain and set aside. Opt for whole grain or fiber-enriched tortellini for better digestion and to support your overall health.
2. Sauté Beef:
– Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
– Add the thinly sliced beef steak, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside. For heart-healthy options, consider trimming any excess fat from the beef.
3. Cook Vegetables:
– In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers, mushrooms, and onions.
– Cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Vegetables add vital nutrients for your immune system and overall wellness.
4. Add Spices:
– Sprinkle the cooked vegetables with garlic powder, onion powder, dried oregano, and dried basil. Stir well to combine. Oregano and basil are known for their anti-inflammatory and digestive health benefits, contributing to better overall health.
5. Make Sauce:
– Pour in the heavy cream, bringing it to a simmer. For a lighter option that promotes better cholesterol management, try using low-fat or dairy-free alternatives.
– Stir in the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese until melted and creamy.
6. Combine:
– Add the cooked tortellini and beef back into the skillet.
– Toss everything together until well combined and heated through.
7. Serve:
– Serve hot, garnished with extra cheese if desired.
