Make this hearty, creamy Italian sausage tortellini soup in one pot for a satisfying weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 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 (9 ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups fresh spinach

Instructions

  1. Brown the Italian sausage in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.
  2. Add the chopped onion to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes (with juice), Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Add the refrigerated tortellini to the simmering soup. Cook according to package directions, usually about 5 to 7 minutes, until the pasta is tender.
  6. Reduce the heat to low. Stir in the heavy cream until fully combined and the soup is creamy. Do not boil after adding cream.
  7. Stir in the fresh spinach until it wilts into the soup.
  8. Serve hot.

Notes

  • You can substitute fresh kale for spinach; add it a few minutes before the spinach so it has time to soften.
  • For a cheesier soup, stir in 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese at the end with the cream.
  • Use mild or hot Italian sausage based on your preference.
