Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound Italian sausage, casings removed
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 (16 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, plus more for serving

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes (with their juice), Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  4. Add the refrigerated tortellini to the simmering broth. Cook according to package directions, usually about 5 to 7 minutes, until the tortellini are tender.
  5. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream and the fresh spinach. Cook just until the spinach wilts, about 2 minutes. Do not let the soup boil after adding the cream.
  6. Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese until melted and the soup is creamy.
  7. Serve immediately in bowls, topping each serving with extra Parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • For a heartier meal, use sweet or spicy Italian sausage based on your preference.
  • If you prefer kale over spinach, substitute 2 cups of chopped kale and add it when you add the broth so it has time to soften.
  • This soup tastes great reheated, but add a splash of milk or broth when reheating to restore the creamy texture.
