- Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions and celery and sauté for 3-5 minutes. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.

Notes
- Freezing Instructions: I recommend freezing the soup before adding the tortellini, so they don't get overcooked and mushy when reheated. Make the soup through step 3, then place in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator, then rewarm on the stove. Add tortellini and cook until tender.
