A quick and hearty creamy broth is filled with veggies, smoked sausage, and tender cheese filled tortellini.
Creamy One-Pot Soup
We love the flavors in this soup but it’s not the only reason we love it.
Only one pot needed, less dishes is always a good thing! The whole dish comes together in about 35 minutes. Tortellini cooks right in the soup, no boiling or straining needed. This soup reheats well.
Ingredients
MEAT Bacon and sausage add a smoky and salty flavor. You can switch out the smoked sausage for Italian sausage in this recipe if you’d like. VEGETABLES Spinach gives it color and texture. Feel free to add leftover vegetables from the fridge or garden! PASTA What we love the most is the tortellini! We prefer cheese or spinach filled tortellini, whatever you prefer! Of course, small ravioli work well in this recipe too. BROTH Chicken broth is the base of this soup and we add in heavy cream to make it creamy. Light cream will work if that’s all you have on hand.
How to Make Creamy Tortellini Soup
Kitchen Tips
For a quick prep, start by cutting and cooking the bacon. While the bacon is cooking, begin preparing the other items. This creamy soup uses just a bit of cream but the addition of a slurry (cornstarch/water mixture) thickens it to a creamy consistency. Fresh herbs can be added just before serving if desired. If you plan on keeping leftovers, cook the tortellini on the side and add it to each dish. It can become mushy if it sits in the broth too long. Dairy doesn’t always freeze well. If you’d like to freeze this soup, remove a portion before adding the cream and tortellini. Once thawed, cream and tortellini can be added.
