In the kitchens of the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy, both large and small, pasta fresca (fresh pasta) is prepared in countless varieties and shapes, and filled with any number of delicious flavors, tastes, and textures, from meat and cheese to pumpkin and chestnuts. The traditional cooks of this region know that the secret to preparing the finest filled pasta is all in the ingredients. Barilla carries on this culinary tradition with Barilla Tortellini, now available in two delicious flavors: Cheese & Spinach Tortellini and Three Cheese Tortellini.

Please be assured that Barilla Filled Pastas containing spinach are perfectly safe to consume. The spinach we use in our Cheese and Spinach Tortellini comes from Italy where our filled pastas are produced. Our processing requires the spinach to be fully cooked, preventing the growth of harmful bacteria. Barilla’s Filled Pastas are a great way to feed your family the foods they love, including spinach.
Barilla Three Cheese Tortellini
Cooking time: “Al dente” perfection in 10-11 minutes
Following a centuries-old Italian tradition, Barilla Three Cheese Tortellini are made from a time-honored recipe: a thin layer of rich, delicate pasta is filled with a perfectly balanced blend of three flavorful cheeses – sweet Swiss Emmenthal, light Ricotta, and nutty Grana Padano. When these three distinctive flavors are combined, they create a zesty, delightful taste sensation that captures all the dimensionality that is the hallmark of authentic Italian cooking.
