This soup is absolutely delicious! Even my 6-year-old son, couldn't get over how amazing it was!
You can use sweet Italian sausage or mild/hot, I used sweet! It is fairly simple to make and it only requires two pots. You can make this a one-pot method by purchasing refrigerator tortellini!
1 pound ground sweet Italian sausage
1 small onion, diced
1 clove garlic or 1/2 Tbsp. Minced garlic
3 Tbsp. Flour
1 Tsp. Dried Basil
1/2 Tsp. Dried Oregano
1 Tsp. Hot sauce, I used Red Hot
1/4 Tsp. Pepper
1 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
5 Cups Chicken Broth
2 Cups of baby spinach & baby Kale, chopped. (you can find this in the salad section, packaged together)
1 Package Cheese Tortellini (approximately 19 Ounce)
Salt to taste
1. In a separate pot, cook tortellini according to the package, only half the cook time.
2. Cook sausage, garlic, and onion until cooked.
3. Add the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes
4. Add 1/2 Tsp Basil, 1/2 Tsp. Oregano, 1Tsp. Hot sauce, 1/4 Tsp. Pepper. Stir to combine.
5. Add the Chicken broth and use a silicone spatula to scrape to the bottom of the pot to get all the cooked scrappings in there.
6. Add the cream, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer
7. Add the Spinach and Kale and simmer for 3-5 minutes
8. Test the soup, and add salt to your desired amount.
9. Let simmer on low for about 10 minutes
10. Serve with bread or garlic bread
I cooked the Tortellini only half of the time, so they didn't get overcooked in the process, they are already cooked and only need to be heated from frozen
