  3. In another bowl, mix cooked cheese tortellini with sour cream and cream of chicken soup until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, prepare the stuffing mix by combining it with softened butter, using a fork to blend until moistened.
  5. Pour the cheesy tortellini mixture into the greased baking dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom. Gently incorporate the vegetable mixture into the cheesy base.
  6. Sprinkle the prepared stuffing mixture evenly over the top of the casserole.
