- Don't overcook the tortellini: Tortellini should be cooked al dente, or slightly firm to the bite. Overcooked tortellini will be mushy and unappetizing.

- Add your favorite toppings: Once the tortellini is cooked and the sauce is heated through, you can add your favorite toppings. Some popular options include Parmesan cheese, crumbled bacon, and chopped parsley.
