Ingredients

Scale

Main Components

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 24 ounces fresh cheese tortellini
  • 2 packets taco seasoning
  • 1 and 3/4 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 16 ounces queso dip

Instructions

  1. Cook the Ground Beef: Add ground beef to a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook, breaking up the meat, until no longer pink and lightly browned.
  2. Season the Meat: Drain any excess fat if necessary, then incorporate the taco seasoning thoroughly to coat the browned meat evenly.
  3. Add Broth and Tortellini: Pour in the beef broth and stir in the fresh cheese tortellini, mixing well to submerge the pasta evenly in the liquid.
  4. Simmer the Tortellini: Bring the contents to a steady simmer and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tortellini are tender and plump.
  5. Add Creamy Ingredients: Lower the heat and gently fold in sour cream and queso, stirring until the sauce is smooth and all ingredients are fully integrated.
  6. Serve Immediately: Portion the dish immediately while hot to enjoy optimal flavor and creamy texture.

Notes

  • For a spicier dish, use hot taco seasoning or add diced jalapeños when simmering the tortellini.
  • Required Equipment: Large skillet, stirring spoon, measuring cups.
  • Check each ingredient for potential allergens and consult a healthcare professional if needed.
