Creamy Tuscan Garlic Tortellini Soup is so easy to make and one of the best soups that you will make! Tortellini, diced tomatoes spinach and white beans are hidden is the most creamy and delicious soup that your family will love!
Our lives have been revolving around cross country and lacrosse at our house. They both have practice twice during the week and then we have games all day on Saturday. Yesterday was our last game and I feel so much more freedom! Having kids involved in busy sports can be tough. This is why I love to still have a hearty meal for my family and soup is the perfect thing!
Since I am obsessed with all things tuscan garlic… (seriously you have got to try this Creamy Tuscan Garlic Chicken), I knew that a soup version of this popular dish had to be made.
This soup you guys. Turned out INCREDIBLE!!
You are going to love how quick and easy this soup is to make! You will love the creamy soup base and everything inside is so delicious. Tortellini, chicken, diced tomatoes, spinach, and white beans. It all comes together perfectly and it is SO delicious!

Can I make ahead and freeze?
You can make the soup ahead but don’t freeze the soup with the tortellini in it. That needs to be cooked and added in fresh, right before serving!
I made it this afternoon. I made a half a recipe. I did not put cream in it. Added tomato juice. Did not put in spinach. Added a sliced carrot. Used garlic powder and added a little Stevia. It is very good.
Follow this recipe exactly how it is you will not be disappointed!!!!!
We LOVE this soup!! I substitute hot sausage in place of chicken for a spicy treat!
I can not tell you how excited I was to find this recipe without canned soup or cream cheese!! I was a caterer and hubby was a chef so we are not fans of either!
Delicious and easy!!
Can other pasta be used instead of tortellini?
Absolutely!
This soup was so good and easy! I will definitely be making it more often.
This recipe is AMAZING! Instead of chicken I use ground spicy/medium Italian sausage. I cook the sausage first and then I add it to the soup at the end. AMAZING!!!!
Make this all the time exactly as written – well sometimes I add sausage too as reviewer suggested. Whole family loves it!!
So delicious! One of our favorites for sure!
Ohhhh my goodness!!! I made this last night for the family (exactly as the recipe reads…well, maybe I added a lil extra garlic with just a pinch less salt) and they could not get enough of it!! It is a super easy recipe and can prep & cook in less than 30 min. Soooo flavorful and just the right amount of creamy, not overkill. No doubt I will make this again & again! Thank you for this deliciousness!!
Side note: I did add 2 chopped zucchini for a little extra veggie content. AMAZING!! 🙂
We love this recipe so much and have served it numerous times. Has anyone replaced the heavy cream with oat or almond milk for a bit healthier version?
This was very yummy! I enjoy more broth in my soup so i would suggest getting double the chicken broth and heavy cream
Did you use 1 rotisserie chicken or 2?
I used 1 but 2 will work too if you would like more meat.
Made last night , with2 bites DH said “it’s a keeper “!! No spinach so used broccoli; used Italian sausage, thanks for recipe!!yummmmmmy!!!
I love soup! My wife turned her nose up when I told her what I was making. Ha! The Chef got the last laugh. Great soup everyone stuffed themselves. Super fast and really good all around. Used grilled boneless chicken and some pieces were a little tough after second cooking. The rotisserie chicken or a baked on the bone chicken would be better. Thanks for the recipe.
Love this soup – so flavorful! Sometimes I make the broth from leftover rotisserie with some spices and it is very flavorful. This whole family loves it!
The only weird thing is that is looks pink when done? I even tried draining the tomatoes. We omit the beans as my family doesn’t like them but that is the only modification. Any ideas why it looks that way? Thanks!
I just made this for the first time today and mine was pink too! I was kind of disappointed because the picture looks so yummy. It tasted okay but it was kinda weird because of the pink broth.
This is a great and easy soup to fix. Very tasty. Served with homemade Italian bread. Yummy! I do want to mention the timing on this soup is not correct (from start to finish). Total time to prepare and serve is minimum of 35 minutes. This includes chopping the onion and garlic and letting it nicely sauté to a buttery transparent. The tortellini takes a few minutes to cook at a simmer (best to simmer and not boil when using cream). I did not read through the reviews and others may have noted this. It’s still a super fast soup to fix and very suitable for guests.
What is the serving size associated with all the nutritional stats? One cup?
Yes, one cup.
Hi! Does this call for grated or shredded Parmesan?
I just want to make sure I use the right kind .
Thank you!
Okay, this is wonderfully delicious, without a doubt. Subtle, flavorful, elegant, and can’t wait to see how the flavors meld overnight !
I had beer can chicken on the grill leftover and it all went in….maybe two or three times as much and added more grated Parmesan at serving.
Served with french bread. Mwah ❣️
