Baked Cheese Tortelloni at Noodles & Company

Noodles & Company has launched its new limited-time Baked Cheese Tortelloni, bringing oven-baked comfort to busy back-to-school dinners.

As families prepare for hectic back-to-school schedules, Noodles & Company is adding another comforting option to its menu. Beginning August 5, guests can order the new limited-time Baked Cheese Tortelloni, a fresh-from-the-oven pasta dish designed to bring homemade comfort without the time-consuming preparation.

The new entrée arrives as many restaurants roll out seasonal menu items for late summer and early fall. In recent weeks, chains have introduced everything from the new offerings featured in our coverage of the Culver’s Back-to-School Menu to Disney’s growing lineup of seasonal treats in our Disney Springs Halloween foodie guide.

The limited-time Baked Cheese Tortelloni features:

  • Cheese-filled tortelloni
  • Rich marinara sauce
  • Melted mozzarella cheese
  • Italian herbs
  • Oven-baked until golden brown and bubbly

Unlike many fast-casual pasta dishes, Noodles & Company says each order is prepared fresh and finished in the oven, creating the texture and flavor of a traditional baked pasta dish. According to the company, the goal was to recreate the experience of enjoying homemade baked pasta without requiring guests to shop, prep, cook, or clean up afterward.

Company Executive on the New Menu Item

“There’s something undeniably comforting about a bubbling baked pasta fresh from the oven,” said Dwayne Chambers, interim chief marketing officer at Noodles & Company.

“With Baked Cheese Tortelloni, we wanted to bring that same experience to our guests in a way that’s convenient enough for busy weeknights while still feeling like a meal worth gathering around.”


Baked Cheese Tortelloni Joins Other Comfort Food Favorites at Noodles & Company

The Baked Cheese Tortelloni joins several existing comfort-focused menu items at Noodles & Company, including:

  • Baked Chicken Parmesan
  • Roasted Garlic Cream Tortelloni

The addition gives guests another seasonal option as cooler weather approaches and demand for hearty comfort foods traditionally increases.

Limited-Time Availability of Baked Cheese Tortelloni

The Baked Cheese Tortelloni is available beginning today for a limited time at participating Noodles & Company restaurants nationwide. Availability may vary by location while supplies last. As restaurant brands continue introducing seasonal comfort foods, consumers have plenty of new options to explore this month.
