Ingredients:  
2 TB olive oil
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 small onion, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 lb bulk Italian sausage (no casings)
1 bottle Bertolli pasta sauce
1 (14oz) can Italian diced tomatoes, with juices

Directions:
Directions:
In a large cast iron skillet, heat oil over medium heat until hot. Add bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Stir constantly for 1 min. Don't burn the garlic! Push mixture to the edges of pan and add sausage into the center of pan. Cook and break up sausage; once it’s half-cooked, stir together with the vegetable mixture and continue cooking until browned.

Add pasta sauce, tomatoes with juices, and half/half. Stir and bring to a simmer. Add tortellini, stirring to submerge tortellini in the sauce. Cover and simmer about 7-8 minutes. Remove from heat. Add spinach and stir just until wilted. Add 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper (or to taste.) Serve immediately with freshly shaved/shredded Parmesan cheese and a sprinkle of Pine Nuts.
