Print Recipe
Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven set over medium heat.
1 tablespoon olive oil
Add in the Italian sausage and use a wooden spoon to break it up into pieces.
1 pound ground Italian sausage
Cook until browned. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel.
Add in the onion and salt to the same pot and sauté for a few minutes until softened.
1 onion, ½ teaspoon kosher salt
Add in the garlic and Italian seasoning and cook for another minute.
3 cloves garlic, 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
Add back in the cooked Italian sausage, plus the crushed tomatoes and tortellini.
15 ounces crushed tomatoes, 16-20 ounces cheese tortellini
Pour in the chicken broth and stir.
5 cups low-sodium chicken broth
Bring the soup to a boil. Then, simmer on low for 15 minutes.
Stir in the spinach until wilted.
4 cups fresh spinach
Slowly stir in the heavy cream before serving.
½ cup heavy cream
- You can use hot or sweet Italian sausage, or try swapping in ground chicken.
- For vegetarian tortellini soup, omit the sausage and swap the chicken broth for vegetable broth.
- Feel free to sub in your favorite kind of tortellini, like chicken, beef, or sausage!
- You can use kale or escarole instead of spinach, if you prefer.
- For creamy tortellini soup, add an extra ½ cup of heavy cream.
Storage: Store tortellini soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months. I recommend storing the tortellini separately from the soup and combining before reheating.
