Serves: 6
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground Italian sausage - mild or hot – you could also use 1½ cups shredded chicken or 1 cup white beans
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp onion powder
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 2 Tbsp flour - or 1 Tbsp cornstarch or Bob's Redmill gluten-free flour
- 2 cups beef broth - or chicken broth
- 1 28 oz can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 28 oz can tomato puree
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 Tbsp honey - or granulated sugar
- 2 cups cheese tortellini - refrigerated or frozen
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- 1 cup heavy cream - or coconut milk for dairy-free
Instructions
- In a large soup pot, heat 2 Tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Add 1 lb Italian sausage and cook for 5–7 minutes, breaking it into pieces. Transfer the sausage to a plate and set aside. Drain any excess grease, leaving about 1 Tbsp of the grease in the pan for flavor.
- Stir in 1 tsp onion powder, ½ tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp Italian seasoning, and 2 Tbsp flour. Mix well to coat.
- Slowly pour in 2 cups beef broth. Add the fire-roasted diced tomatoes, tomato puree, 1 Tbsp honey or brown sugar, 1 tsp salt, and ½ tsp black pepper. Stir to combine.
- Pour in 1 cup heavy cream (or coconut milk). Return the sausage (or add cooked chicken or beans) to the pot.
- Bring the soup to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.
- Once boiling, add 2 cups cheese tortellini. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 7–9 minutes, until tortellini are tender and floating.
- Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Serve hot with crusty garlic bread and a salad.

Notes
- Don’t overcook tortellini – they’ll keep softening in the hot soup, even after the stove.
- Use coconut milk for a light dairy-free swap that still tastes creamy.
- Try adding spinach or kale during the last 2 minutes for a veggie boost.
- Fire-roasted tomatoes will give the broth a smoky depth of flavor.
- This soup reheats beautifully — just add a splash of broth or cream when warming.
