Creamy Alfredo Marinara Tortellini Bake: The Ultimate Comfort Food Casserole Made with the Most Underrated Sauce!

This Alfredo Marinara Tortellini Bake with beef is a hearty, family-friendly dish packed with flavor. 

Tender cheese tortellini are baked in a rich blend of creamy Alfredo and zesty marinara sauce, layered with seasoned ground beef and gooey melted cheese.

It’s an easy, comforting weeknight dinner that comes together in one pan for minimal cleanup and maximum taste.

I will affectionately be calling this very underrated sauce (the combo of alfredo and marinara) as ALFR-INARA from now on.
