Directions

  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 350°. In a 6-qt. stockpot, cook tortellini according to package directions, reducing cook time to 5 minutes. Drain; return to pot. Add Alfredo sauce, artichoke hearts, sausage, chicken, cheese and tomatoes; toss gently to combine.
  2. 2
    Transfer to a greased 2-quart baking pan, spreading evenly. Bake, covered, 30 minutes.
  3. 3
    Meanwhile, for topping, unroll dough; press perforations to seal. Spread pesto on top. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting with a short side; pinch seam to seal. Using a serrated knife, cut crosswise into 8 slices.
  4. 4
    Arrange slices over casserole, cut side up. Bake, uncovered, until rolls are golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Sprinkle with cheese. If desired, top with torn basil leaves.
