Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 28 ounces Crushed tomatoes
- 4 cups Chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 10 ounces Cheese tortellini
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil leaves, chopped
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and chicken or vegetable broth. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cook for 10 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Using an immersion blender, carefully blend the soup until smooth. (Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a regular blender, then return it to the pot.)
Stir in the heavy cream and bring the soup back to a gentle simmer.
Add the cheese tortellini, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper to the pot. Cook according to the tortellini package instructions, usually 7-9 minutes, until the pasta is tender.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and fresh basil leaves.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with extra Parmesan and basil if desired.
