Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened.
Stir in the minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes (if using) and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and the can of diced tomatoes, including their juices. Stir to combine.
Increase the heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Add the tortellini to the pot and cook according to the package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes for fresh tortellini or slightly longer for frozen.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the baby spinach. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted.
Season the soup with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
