Ingredients
- 8 cups turkey broth low sodium, or chicken broth
- 1 cup carrot about 2 large, thinly sliced
- ½ cup celery about 2 ribs, thinly sliced
- 1 can 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes with Italian seasonings
- 2 cups turkey diced or shredded, cooked
- 1 garlic minced, large clove
- 1.5 teaspoon Italian herb mix dried
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
- 2 cups spinach fresh baby leaves
- 1 package 9 oz. refrigerated three-cheese tortellini
- ¼ cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring turkey broth to a simmer. Add carrots, celery, and garlic, and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Stir in tomatoes, turkey, Italian herb mix, black pepper, and simmer 10 more minutes. Taste test, and then add desired amount of kosher salt - as different broths, tomatoes, and turkey will have varying amounts of salt. Depending on your broth, if you are looking for a bit more flavor depth you could always add a little Turkey Better Than Bouillon.
- Turn heat up just a bit. Stir in tortellini and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in spinach and cook until tortellini is done.
- Serve immediately, garnishing individual servings with freshly grated Parmesan (I recommend this grater) - such a wonderfully tasty finishing touch!
