Ingredients

  • 1½ lb mild Italian sausage
  • 1 count large onion
  • 3 count garlic cloves
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 28 oz no-salt-added fire-roasted diced tomatoes
  • 1 tbsp Italian seasoning
  • 16 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 count loaf garlic bread
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper

Steps

  1. Brown the sausage (casings removed) with the diced onion in a soup pot, breaking it up, 7 minutes, until cooked through (160°F). Drain extra fat. Add the garlic for 1 minute.

  3. Add the tortellini and simmer 4 to 6 minutes until tender.
  4. Stir in the cream, season with salt and pepper and serve with the garlic bread.
  5. Picky eaters can have plain tortellini and garlic bread.
  6. Make ahead: cook the soup through step 2 up to 2 days ahead and chill. Reheat, then add the tortellini and cream.

On the side: Crusty bread (2 min)

2 loaves crusty bread

  1. Warm the bread in a 350°F oven for 5 minutes, then slice.
