Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 12 ounces beef sausage Package, approximately
  • 9 ounces cheese tortellini Package, approximately
  • 4 cups beef broth Low sodium recommended
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper To taste
  • Fresh parsley For garnish

Method
 

Cooking
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, add the beef sausage. Use a spatula to break it apart as it cooks for about 5-7 minutes or until browned and cooked through.
  2. Once the sausage is cooked, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté for around 3-4 minutes or until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
  3. Pour in the beef broth, stirring to combine. Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
  4. Add the cheese tortellini and Italian seasoning to the pot. Cook according to the package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes or until the tortellini floats to the top.
  5. Once the tortellini is cooked, reduce the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Let the soup warm through for 2-3 more minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.

Notes

Try switching the beef sausage for chicken or turkey sausage for a lighter twist. Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days in the refrigerator or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat gently over low heat, adding broth or cream if it thickens too much.
