Cheese Tortellini
Cheese Tortellini is an Italian stuffed pasta traditionally filled with a mixture of cheeses and shaped into small rings; it's commonly served in broth, with a sauce, or simply tossed with butter and herbs. It is a convenient source of concentrated protein for a pasta — about 11.5g of protein per 100g — thanks to the cheese filling, but it also delivers a fair amount of refined carbohydrates and some saturated fat and salt from the dairy. While the cheese filling gives it a strong amino-acid profile compared with plain pasta, it is relatively low in fiber and bioactive plant compounds, so pairing it with vegetables or choosing whole‑grain filled versions can improve its nutritional balance.
