Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup yellow onion diced
- 1 cup carrot diced
- 1 cup celery diced
- 3 cloves garlic grated or minced
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 3 prigs thyme fresh
- 2 tablespoons basil chopped, fresh
- 2 diced tomatoes 14.5 oz) cans
- 15 ounce cannellini beans drained and rinsed, can, low sodium
- kosher salt I used approximately 1 teaspoon, fresh ground, to taste
- black pepper I used approximately 1 teaspoon, fresh ground, to taste
- 1 Parmesan Cheese optional, rind
- 6 cups chicken broth low sodium
- 2 chicken breast shredded, cooked
- 5 ounces baby spinach
- 9 ounces cheese tortellini refrigerated
- 1/2 cup Parmesan Cheese shredded
- 1/2 cup half and half
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery, and carrots and sauté 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté another minute.
- Pour in the tomatoes, beans, Italian seasoning, fresh herbs, parmesan cheese rind, and broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste and stir everything together.
- Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 15 minutes with the lid on. Increase the heat to medium and add in the shredded chicken, spinach, tortellini, and parmesan cheese. Cook with the lid off for the recommended time listed on the package of tortellini.
- Taste for seasoning then turn off the heat and stir in the half and half. Remove the stems from the fresh thyme and the parmesan cheese rind. Serve with extra parmesan cheese and basil.
Notes
- The parmesan cheese rind is optional, but if you have one on hand it's a great way to add a rich, cheesy, umami flavor to the soup while also helping to thicken it. Simply discard the rind once the soup has finished cooking.
