Ingredients

  • 1 lb Italian sausage (mild or hot)
  • 1 lb cheese tortellini
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Crusty bread for serving

Instructions

When you need a hug in a bowl, this Creamy Tuscan Tortellini Soup delivers! It's rich, hearty, and comes together in one pot in just 30 minutes.

Step 1

Brown the Italian sausage in a large pot over medium-high heat, breaking it into crumbles. Once cooked through, drain any excess fat.

Step 2

Add minced garlic and sun-dried tomatoes to the pot. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 3

Pour in chicken broth and Italian seasoning. Bring to a boil, then add the cheese tortellini. Cook for 3-4 minutes until tortellini float.

Step 4

Reduce heat to low. Stir in heavy cream, parmesan cheese, and fresh spinach. Let the spinach wilt for 2 minutes.

Step 5

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls and serve with crusty bread for dipping into that incredible broth!

This soup gets even better as leftovers — the flavors deepen overnight. For a lighter version, use half-and-half instead of heavy cream. Pure comfort food perfection!
