We've heard the nasty rumors about kale for years (thinks she's better than us, taking hardworking lettuces' jobs in salads), and we don’t believe a word. Kale's been nothing but good to us. And she's great in this dish. Healthy and with a slightly bitter taste, adding to the earthy, meaty mushrooms and rich tortellini. Reputation means nothing; the flavor is everything. Tip: This recipe has a shallot, which sometimes is rough to mince. The easiest way to mince shallot? Make thin slices lengthwise, then slices across, resulting in minced shallot.

  • Meatlovers! If using protein, cook in a medium non-stick pan over medium heat with 1 tsp. olive oil. If using Impossible burger, break up until burger reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-6 minutes. If using Italian sausage, remove from casing, if necessary. Break up until no pink remains and sausage reaches minimum internal temperature, 4-6 minutes. Add to tortellini as desired.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Cut mushrooms into 1/4" slices.

    Peel and thinly slice shallot.

  2. 2

    Start the Sauce

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tsp. olive oil.

    Add shallots, garlic salt, and mushrooms to hot pan. Cook undisturbed until starting to brown, 3-4 minutes.

    Add kale and stir occasionally until wilted, 2-3 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Tortellini and Finish Sauce

    Stir 3/4 cup water, cream cheese, and cream base into hot pan. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, add tortellini and stir to combine. Cover and cook until tortellini are heated through, 3-4 minutes.

    Uncover and stir occasionally until sauce thickens, 2-3 minutes.

    Add Parmesan and half the seasoned salt blend (to taste; add remaining, if desired). Stir often until sauce coats tortellini, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.
