Ingredients

  • 1 lb Italian sausage, casings removed
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can diced tomatoes
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 (9 oz) package cheese tortellini
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.
  2. Add the diced onion and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, diced tomatoes, Italian seasoning, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a gentle simmer.
  4. Add the cheese tortellini and cook according to package instructions, usually 7-9 minutes.
  5. Stir in the fresh spinach and allow it to wilt. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes

For a lighter version, use turkey sausage and half-and-half instead of heavy cream.
