20 minute Spinach Tortellini Bake

Family dinners have always been an important part of my life. For as long as I can remember, we would sit down for dinner together every night at the table – talking and enjoying our meal together. Even as we got older, we made sure to be home for dinner to sit down together as a family.

And sitting down for family dinner is something I plan to continue with my own family. Right now it’s tough with a two year old who has an attention span of ten seconds, but we still attempt to sit down together every night, even if it means giving him some books or crayons to keep him occupied while we eat our meal.

Ragu sauce is also about family traditions. It all started in 1914 when Assunata Cantisano came to America from Naples, Italy with little more than a delicious family recipe to her name.
