Ingredients
- 1 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 yellow onion diced (about ½ cup, small
- 2 carrot sliced into about 1/2” rounds (about 1 cup, medium
- 2 celery diced (about 1 cup, stalks
- 1 diced tomatoes 28 ounce can
- 4 cups vegetable broth
- ¼ teaspoon thyme dried
- ¼ teaspoon oregano
- ¾ teaspoon salt to taste, fine sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 4 cups kale lacinato, torn
- 10 ounces cheese tortellini refrigerated or frozen
- 1 tablespoon basil finely chopped, fresh leaves
Instructions
- In a large pot over medium heat, add oil, garlic, onion, carrots and celery. Cook down for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add in canned tomatoes (and their juices), vegetable broth, seasoning, salt and red pepper flakes. Turn heat to high, allowing the mixture to come to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 20 minutes, until vegetables are tender. During the last 5 minutes of cooking, stir in the torn kale.
- Add in tortellini, stir and cook for 4 minutes, until tortellini is soft.
- Stir in fresh basil, taste test for more salt or heat, and serve with favorite loaf of bread, grated parmesan cheese, or more fresh herbs.
Notes
- Storing in the Fridge: Remove the tortellini from the broth and set them in a separate container. Store the remaining soup in another airtight container and place the two containers side-by-side in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freezer Storage: Cook just as directed, but do not add the tortellini. Cool completely, transfer to a freezer safe container, seal tight, label, date and freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the fridge.
- Reheating Instructions: Place the soup in a saucepan over medium heat and bring up to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally. Add the tortellini back in. If reheating with uncooked tortellini, boil until the tortellini is cooked through.
