Ingredients
- 1 medium onion
- 4 carrots
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1-2 TBSP olive oil
- 1 TBSP Italian seasoning blend Mrs. Dash is my favorite
- 1/2-1 tsp salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 2-3 TBSP butter
- 3 TBSP flour
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 14.5 oz canned fire roasted tomatoes (crushed or diced)
- 15.5 oz can white beans (drained and rinsed)
- 9 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 2 cups chopped spinach
TASTY TOPPINGS
- grated Parmesan cheese
- red pepper flakes
- freshly ground black pepper
- fresh chopped basil
Instructions
- Peel and finely dice your carrots and onion. Peel 4 cloves of fresh garlic and finely mince.
- Heat 1-2 TBSP oil in a large pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion and carrots. Sauté until tender, approx. 5-6 minutes, adding garlic towards the very end to prevent over-browning. Season with Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
- Next add 2-3 TBSP butter and, once melted, whisk in flour and cook for an additional minute or two, stirring often. This will give the soup a little extra thickness but can 100% be skipped if desired.
- Add broth, fire-roasted tomatoes, white beans.
- Bring soup to a rolling boil, then reduce heat to low/simmer to allow the flavors to mingle and the carrots/onion to fully soften. Cover and simmer 5-10 minutes.
- Once the veggies have reached your ideal tenderness, bring the soup back up to a medium simmer and add your fresh tortellini and heavy cream. Allow the tortellini to simmer approx. 5 minutes until tortellini is tender and the cream has thickened.
- Lastly chop your spinach and stir into the hot soup to wilt the greens. If desired you can add an extra cup of broth. Give it a taste and add any extra seasoning your heart desires plus your favorite toppings (grated parm and fresh basil for me!). Dive in while it's hot!
Cup of Yum
Notes
- The leftover soup is AWESOME and will keep a few days in the refrigerator. Simply reheat via microwave (it's a great grab and go work lunch!) or in a small pot on the stovetop.
