Why You’ll Love Spinach Tortellini Soup
This Spinach Tortellini Soup is like a warm hug during the ❄️ cold winter months. It is chockful of nutritious ingredients, and it’s hearty, filling and so so satisfying. I love the simple combo of 🥕 carrots, celery and onion, but you could absolutely add in different vegetables. It’s a one-pot soup that comes together so quickly, you can have it on the table in less than half an hour. Plus, it freezes like a dream, so feel free to double or triple the batch and freeze it for another meal.
How to Prepare Spinach Tortellini Soup
🔪 Start by dicing up half an onion, carrot and celery rib using a sharp knife. Then mince a couple cloves of garlic as well.
🧅 To a soup pot over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the onions, carrots, and celery for two minutes until soft.
🧄 Now, add in the garlic and sauté for another 30 seconds.
🫒 Then add another 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and stir together.
🍗 Next, pour in 6 cups of good-quality veggie or chicken broth, salt and pepper to taste and simmer for 10 minutes.
💦 To a separate pot, boil the tortellini in salted water. Once they float to the top, add them into the soup pot.
🥬 Now add in the spinach and half-and-half cream.
🧂 Feel free to add a touch of Italian seasoning and a bit more salt to taste.
😋 Garnish with freshly grated parm and enjoy.
