About Spinach and ricotta tortellini

Spinach and Ricotta Tortellini is a classic Italian pasta dish, featuring small, ring-shaped parcels filled with a blend of fresh spinach and creamy ricotta cheese. Typically crafted from durum wheat pasta dough, this beloved recipe combines the nuttiness of spinach with the smooth texture of ricotta to create a rich yet balanced flavor profile. Originating in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, tortellini is often served with light sauces such as olive oil, marinara, or broth to complement the delicate filling. Nutritionally, it offers a good source of protein and calcium from the ricotta, along with vitamins and fiber from the spinach. However, it can be calorie-dense and high in carbs, especially with creamy or heavy sauces, making portion control important. Spinach and Ricotta Tortellini offers a wholesome, nutritious option with the indulgent taste of authentic Italian cuisine.
