Ingredients

    12 oz (375 g) fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
    1 tbsp (15 mL) butter
    1/4 cup (50 mL) all-purpose_flour
    3 cups (750 mL) 1% milk, warmed
    1 cup (250 mL) grated Parmesan cheese
    1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
    Pinch ground nutmeg
    1/2 cup (125 mL) fresh bread_crumbs
    1/4 cup (50 mL) chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

In pot of boiling salted water, cook tortellini until tender, about 8 minutes; drain.

Meanwhile, in saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; stir in flour and cook, stirring, until light golden, about 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk; simmer, stirring constantly, until just thick enough to coat back of spoon, about 7 minutes.

Stir in 3/4 cup (175 mL) of the Parmesan cheese, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir in tortellini. Scrape into 8-inch (2 L) square glass baking dish.

In small bowl, mix together bread crumbs, parsley and remaining cheese; sprinkle over tortellini mixture. Bake in 400°F (200°C) oven until bubbly and browned, about 10 minutes.
