Instructions
In a large skillet, cook and crumble ground beef until no longer pink. Drain, wipe out skillet if needed, and return ground beef to skillet.
Stir in steak seasoning, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, water, and beef bullion granules. Bring mixture to a boil.
Add tortellini, stir to combine, and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 4-5 minutes, or until tortellini are tender and heated through.
Sprinkle tortellini with cheese, remove from heat, and cover. Let stand 3-4 minutes, or until cheese is melted. Serve immediately. (see note below about a cream sauce)
Notes
Some readers have commented that this recipe is too dry, but it is not meant to have a cream sauce, so keep that in mind. If you do want a creamy texture, try adding Alfredo sauce, a can of cream of mushroom soup, or a touch of heavy cream for more flavor.
