No one will believe that just three ingredients make up this tomato sauce that tastes like it bubbled away all day on top of the stove. It's that good. —Jennifer Eggert, Scottsdale, Arizona

Ingredients

  • 1 package (19 ounces) frozen cheese tortellini
  • 2 fully cooked Italian chicken sausage links (3 ounces each), sliced
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes with garlic and onion, undrained
  • 1 package (6 ounces) fresh baby spinach
  • 4 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese
