Easy Tortellini Soup



The weather is getting colder and soup sounds so good to take the chill out of the air!!

Well this soup is not only yummy but EASY!

Ingredients: 

1 3/4 lb Roma tomatoes (about 9 medium)
1 1/2 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 yellow onion finely chopped (1 1/2 cups)
6 cloves garlic, minced 
8 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (20 oz) package refrigerated three cheese tortellini
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
6 - 9 oz fresh spinach, chopped
3 Tbsp chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup finely shredded Parmesan cheese, for serving

First sauté  onions, garlic and cherry tomatoes in a pot with a little bit of olive oil.


Second add in a "green" this can be kale, spinach or swiss chard! I used spinach this time but any would be yummy!


Once it all cooks down add chicken broth and seasonings to taste. I added garlic salt, pepper and basil!



Add in the tortellini and boil lightly until cooked!


Let simmer for  2-3 hours.



Sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top and enjoy~!!




It is as Simple As 1-2-3!
