Instructions
- In a large pot or dutch oven, cook the sausage, onion, and garlic over medium-high heat until the sausage starts to brown.
- Add the carrots, green pepper, and zucchini, stirring and cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the sausage is no longer pink.
- Add the crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, beef broth, water, grape juice, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cover. Simmer for 20-30 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
- Add the tortellini and simmer for 5-10 minutes, until the pasta is tender.
- Sprinkle the fresh parsley over the soup and taste and adjust seasoning. Serve with freshly grated Parmesan cheese.
Notes
- You might be tempted to skip the white grape juice, which is what I did the first time I tested this recipe at home myself, but it actually really does make a difference in the flavor!
- I often buy the large packages of tortellini at Costco and use only one side, then freeze the other for another use later.
