+# Cheese Tortellini in Creamy Marinara
+Cheese tortellini makes the best quick dinner recipe! Serve it up in a creamy marinara sauce flavored with goat cheese and basil.  
+
+## ingredients
+* 12 to 16 ounces frozen or refrigerated cheese tortellini  
+* 28 ounce can crushed fire roasted tomatoes (or best quality crushed tomatoes)  
+* 2 tablespoons olive oil  
+* 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar  
+* 2 teaspoons garlic powder  
+* 1 teaspoon dried oregano  
+* 1 teaspoon kosher salt  
+* 3 cups baby spinach leaves, tightly packed (or chopped spinach)  
+* 8 fresh basil leaves  
+* 4 ounce goat cheese log  
+
+## steps
+1. Boil the tortellini according to the package instructions (fresh usually takes 2 to 3 minutes and frozen takes 2 to 5 minutes to boil). Then drain it.   
+2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, place the crushed tomatoes, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic powder, oregano, kosher salt, spinach, and whole basil leaves. Bring to a simmer, then cover and simmer while the pasta cooks or at least 10 minutes.  
+3. When the pasta is done and drained, add it to the skillet. Crumble in the goat cheese into the sauce and stir until a creamy sauce forms (if you’d like, save out a few crumbles for topping). Serve immediately.
