Description

A creamy, comforting one-pot Spinach Tortellini Soup made with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and cheese tortellini in a rich tomato-vegetable broth. Perfect for quick, cozy weeknight dinners.


Ingredients

  • 1 jar (8.5 ounces) sun-dried tomatoes in oil, with Italian seasoning, divided
  • 1 cup frozen, sliced carrots
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • ½ tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can (15 ounces) tomato sauce
  • 12 ounces spinach and cheese tortellini
  • 1 cup frozen, chopped spinach
  • 1½ cups heavy cream
  • Optional garnish: fresh grated Parmesan cheese, fresh chopped basil

Instructions

  1. In a large saucepan or stockpot, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil from the sun-dried tomato jar over medium heat. Drain the remaining oil and set aside the tomatoes.
  2. Add frozen carrots, minced garlic, and Italian seasoning. Sauté for 3–5 minutes until carrots begin to soften.
  3. Pour in the vegetable broth, tomato sauce, and sun-dried tomatoes. Stir to combine.
  4. Bring to a low boil, then add tortellini and frozen chopped spinach.
  5. Cover and cook for 10–15 minutes until tortellini are cooked and the soup thickens slightly.
  6. Remove from heat and stir in the heavy cream.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with Parmesan cheese and chopped basil if desired.

Notes

  • Use non-dairy cream alternatives for a dairy-free version.
  • Fresh spinach can be used; add in the last 3–5 minutes.
  • Substitute tortellini with ravioli or small pasta, adjusting cook time.
  • If using dry sun-dried tomatoes, rehydrate and add extra olive oil.
  • Add cooked chicken or sausage for extra protein.
