Cheese Tortellinis in Diablo

I keep cheese tortellinis (made by a local Italian deli) in my freezer for making quick meals on the fly. The Tortellinis are whole wheat and stuffed with Parmesan and Ricotta cheeses. I try to keep wheat based foods to a minimum. Maybe ounce a week I'll have something made with wheat, such as these Tortellinis. The Diablo Sauce or spicy tomato sauce is made from San Marzano tomatos, along with some garlic, basil, honey, crushed red pepper flakes, olive oil, and salt/pepper. The sauce was simmered for over 2 hours on low heat to develop rich flavor. Plate and shave Parmesan cheese over.
