Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (28-ounce) can of crushed tomatoes
  • 3 cups vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 9 ounces fresh or frozen cheese tortellini
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • Fresh parsley

Equipment

  • Large Soup Pot
  • Wooden Spoon or Stirring Spoon
  • Knife and Cutting Board
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Can Opener
  • Soup Ladle
  • Colander

Method
 

  1. Sauté the Vegetables: In your large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until it becomes soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for another 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
  2. Add the Tomatoes and Broth: Add the crushed tomatoes and vegetable or chicken broth to the pot. Stir in the dried basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to simmer for about 10 minutes. This allows the flavors to blend.
  3. Add the Tortellini: Once the broth is simmering, add the tortellini. Stir gently and cook the tortellini according to the package instructions (usually about 5-7 minutes for fresh tortellini or 8-10 minutes for frozen tortellini). You’ll know it’s ready when the tortellini floats to the top of the soup.
  4. Stir in the Cream: Once the tortellini is cooked, stir in the heavy cream. This adds a rich, velvety texture to the soup. Allow it to heat through for about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve and Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls. If you like, garnish with some fresh parsley for a pop of color and added flavor. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

I cooked this Tomato Tortellini Soup on a chilly evening, and it was the perfect meal for warming up. The creamy tomato broth combined with the tender tortellini made it a hit at the dinner table. Don’t forget, it’s super easy to adjust the ingredients to fit your taste. Add more garlic if you love that bold flavor or sprinkle some grated Parmesan on top for an extra cheesy kick.
