Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 pound mild or spicy Italian sausage (dairy-free)
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 medium carrot, peeled and diced
- 2 medium celery stalks, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes (no salt added)
- 1 cup unsweetened dairy-free milk (such as almond or oat milk)
- 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 10 ounces dairy-free tortellini
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove sausage with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In the same pot, add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute, stirring frequently until fragrant.
Pour in the diced tomatoes (including the liquid), dairy-free milk, and chicken broth. Stir in the basil, oregano, salt, and pepper.
Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Return the sausage to the pot and add the dairy-free tortellini. Cook according to the tortellini package instructions, typically 7-9 minutes, until tender.
Stir in the baby spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes, just until wilted.
Taste the soup and adjust seasonings as needed.
Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
