I've made this before without the tortellini. But this is the only way I'll make this from now on. I used currants instead of raisins and didn't have sunflower seeds. It still turned out great! Will make again! Thanks.

I used the fresh packaged Tortellini in the refridgerator section of the grocery store. Instead of the hard or frozen kind, it works much better and I findthat it isn't as soggy and stays fresh and yummy!

This was pretty good, but I messed up and forgot to get some ingredients at the store. I omitted the raisins and sunflower seeds this is what I forgot. I think it would have been much better with those ingredients. The flavor is good otherwise and I will make again with the correct stuff added. Thanks for the great recipe.
