Tortellini is a type of stuffed pasta originating from the Emilia-Romagna region in Italy. Typically filled with a mixture of cheeses, meats like prosciutto or pork, and sometimes vegetables, tortellini offers a flavorful experience wrapped in delicate pasta dough. It is traditionally served in broth or with sauces like cream or tomato. While tortellini provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy and some protein from the fillings, it can also be high in calories and fat depending on the filling and accompanying sauce. Whole wheat versions or vegetable-filled options can offer added fiber and nutrients, making it a healthier choice. Pairing tortellini with lighter, vegetable-based sauces or broth can help balance its nutritional profile, making it a satisfying yet mindful addition to an Italian-inspired meal.
