Creamy tortellini soup is a deliciously warm way to spruce up a package of tortellini noodles. Plus, it's fun to customize the soup with seasonal veggies, meat and fresh herbs.

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 3 medium carrots, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) vegetable broth
  • 1 package (9 ounces) refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • Crushed red pepper flakes, optional
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 4 cups chopped fresh spinach
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, optional

Directions

  1. In a Dutch oven, heat oil over medium heat. Add carrots and onion; cook and stir until crisp-tender, 6-8 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir 1 minute longer. Stir in flour until blended; add white wine. Increase heat and cook, stirring occasionally until wine is reduced by half, 2-3 minutes. Gradually whisk in broth. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until slightly thickened, 3-5 minutes.
  2. Add tortellini, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper and, if desired, crushed red pepper flakes. Reduce heat and cook, uncovered, just until tortellini are tender, 3-5 minutes. Stir in cream and spinach; cook and stir just until spinach is wilted, 1-2 minutes longer. If desired, serve with grated Parmesan cheese and top with additional crushed red pepper flakes.
