Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 medium celery stalks, sliced
- 1 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes
- 6 cups chicken or vegetable broth
- 2 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 10 ounces cheese tortellini, fresh or frozen
- 2 cups baby spinach
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese, for serving

Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
Add the diced onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes, until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, sliced carrots, and sliced celery. Cook for an additional 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the crushed tomatoes and chicken or vegetable broth. Stir to combine.
Add the dried Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Bring the soup to a gentle boil over medium-high heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
Gently stir in the tortellini and cook according to the package instructions (typically 3–5 minutes), until they are tender and cooked through.
Add the baby spinach to the pot and stir until wilted, about 1–2 minutes.
Taste the soup and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy your comforting Quickie Tortellini Soup!
