Tortellini Soup


I discovered this recipe in the Out Here magazine by Tractor Supply Company and it has quickly become one of my husband's favorite meals- one that he begs for as soon as the weather begins to cool and fall is in the air!
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 onion, chopped
4 or 5 garlic cloves, crushed
5 or 6 Italian sausages (hot, mild, or sweet) or 1 lb of ground Italian sausage
1 tsp. oregano
1 tsp. rosemary
½ tsp. basil
2 cans stewed tomatoes
6 cups chicken broth
1 bag (about 12 oz.) fresh pre-washed spinach, chopped
1 package fresh or frozen tortellini
Parmesan cheese, to taste
Salt and pepper, to taste

  1. Brown onion, garlic, and sausage in olive oil. Drain oil.
  2. Add oregano, rosemary, basil, tomatoes, and chicken broth. Simmer for up to 1 hour.
  3. Just before you serve, turn off heat, add tortellini and spinach, and cover for about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Garnish with Parmesan cheese.
  5. Season with salt and pepper.
