Directions
1. To make the creamy tortellini soup: In a large pot or Dutch oven, sauté diced onion and sun-dried tomatoes in oil from the sun-dried tomato jar over medium-high heat until the onions are softened – about 4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
2. Add Italian seasoning, cayenne, hot sauce, and pepper. Stir to combine.
3. Pour in the low-sodium vegetable broth to deglaze and scrape the brown bits into the bottom of the Dutch oven with a wooden spoon. Add the heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer.
4. Add the spinach and tortellini and simmer the soup for 3-5 minutes. Taste the tortellini soup and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
5. Divide the creamy tortellini soup into serving bowls and top with grated parmesan, red pepper flakes, and basil. Enjoy! ❤️

Tips for the creamy tortellini soup recipe
- You can use kale or collard greens instead of spinach. Note that they all need a just few minutes in the soup to soften enough without getting soggy.
- Fresh tortellini cooks very quickly, so for that perfect al dente tortellini make sure you’re ready to serve before adding them to the soup.
What to serve with the tortellini soup?
We like to serve this tortellini soup on its own, but if you’re extra hungry, serve this soup with garlic bread, and/or a green salad on the side.
How to keep the tortellini soup leftovers?
You can keep the tortellini soup leftover in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat the creamy tortellini soup on the stove with a few drops of water or broth to loosen the soup.

This was SO. GOOD. Such an easy recipe and perfect for cold weather. My husband and I are obsessed!!! Will be adding to the normal rotation. For hot sauce we used Trader Joe’s chunky garlic jalapeño sauce and it was delish. We also did mini raviolis instead of tortellini and added some grated parmesan at the end. Amazing!!

This is seriously delicious! Here's some little tweaks I made to it with what I had on hand: I added a little bit of tomato paste (1 tbsp-ish) when I added the garlic. I pureed silken tofu & a little bit of broth with an immersion blender and added that to the soup for hidden protein (I used about half the pack of tofu). I added a parmesan rind while it was simmering and removed it before serving. I also added two bay leaves. I had peri peri hot sauce from Trader Joe's and used about 2 teaspoons of that, soooo good. I used spinach + kale, because I'm trying to get my vitamins in. Fresh basil takes this recipe to the next level as well. Thank you for this recipe!!
