Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
  • 2 celery ribs, sliced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt more to taste
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 3 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes undrained
  • 1 (9-ounce) package refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 2 cups fresh baby spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese plus more for serving
  • 2 tablespoons chopped basil plus more for garnish

Instructions

  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium yellow onion, diced, 2 medium carrots, peeled and sliced, 2 celery ribs,sliced, and 3 garlic cloves, minced. Cook until the vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon black pepper, 3 cups vegetable broth, and 1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 5 minutes, until the carrots begin to soften.

  • Reduce the heat to low and stir in 2 cups fresh baby spinach, 1 cup heavy cream, ½ cup shredded Parmesan cheese, and 2 tablespoons chopped basil. Cook until the spinach has wilted, about 2 minutes.

Notes

Make Ahead, Storage, & Reheating Instructions
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–4 days.
  • Make Ahead: Cook the soup without the tortellini, then add it in when you reheat.
  • Reheating: Warm leftovers in a pot over medium heat until heated through. If you left out the tortellini, add it while reheating and cook for a few minutes before serving.
