Tortellini Filling

Ingredients:

• 1 Tablespoon butter
• 1 lb lean ground beef (can substitute any ground meat or just do a cheese filling as well)
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese (I actually used a blend of Parmesan, Romano & Asiago that I found at Trader Joes)
• 2 Tablespoons Parsley

Instructions:

1. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned.
2. Add the red pepper and the garlic and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the meat is cooked through.
3. Combine the cooked beef, cheese and Parsley in a food processor and blend until smooth. Mix in the egg until combined. Store the mixture in the fridge until ready to use.
