Preparation
- In a large pot, brown the ground beef over medium heat until it’s fully cooked. Make sure to break it apart with a spoon to ensure even cooking.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
- Pour in the crushed tomatoes and beef broth. Stir well to combine and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- Add Italian seasoning, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes to allow the flavors to mingle.
- Stir in the cheese tortellini and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the tortellini are tender and cooked through.
- Remove from heat and garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving.
- Ladle the soup into bowls and dive into this hearty meal!
Notes
For a thicker soup, let it simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes to reduce the liquid. Experiment with additional veggies such as spinach or bell peppers for added nutrition and flavor. Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for about 3 months.
