Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound Italian sausage
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 can 14.5 oz diced tomatoes
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 package 9 oz cheese tortellini
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Grated Parmesan cheese for serving

Method
 

  1. Brown the Sausage: In a large pot over medium heat, cook the Italian sausage until it is nicely browned. Drain any excess fat to keep your soup from being too greasy.
  2. Sauté the Vegetables: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté until the onion turns translucent and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes.
  3. Add the Broth and Tomatoes: Pour in the chicken broth along with the canned diced tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a boil to meld those wonderful flavors together.
  4. Introduce the Tortellini: Stir in the cheese tortellini along with the Italian seasoning. Let it cook according to the tortellini package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Finish with Spinach: Finally, fold in the fresh spinach until it wilts nicely into the soup. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: Ladle the hearty soup into bowls and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese for an extra touch of deliciousness. Enjoy while hot!
