Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add tortellini and cook according to package instructions, about 3-5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add ground beef and Italian sausage, breaking apart with a spatula. Cook until fully browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat.
