Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound halal sausage (Italian or your choice)
  • 1 package (9 ounces) tortellini (fresh or frozen)
  • 4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach, washed and chopped
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once it’s hot, toss in the chopped onion and cook until translucent (about 5 minutes).
  2. Add the minced garlic and continue to sauté for an additional minute until fragrant.
  3. Next, add the halal sausage to the pot. Break it apart with a wooden spoon and cook until it’s browned and cooked through, roughly 6-8 minutes.
  4. Pour in the diced tomatoes along with their juices, and then add the chicken broth. Bring everything to a gentle boil.
  5. Stir in the tortellini and cook according to the package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes.
  6. Just before serving, gently fold in the fresh spinach. Allow it to wilt for about 1-2 minutes.
  7. Taste the soup and season with salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

If using leftovers, allow the soup to cool, then transfer it into an airtight container. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for about a month. When reheating, stir occasionally and add broth or water if it’s too thick. Substitutions such as ground turkey or plant-based sausages can be used for different diets.
