Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 pound Italian sausage (mild or spicy, based on your preference)

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 medium carrots, diced

2 celery stalks, diced

4 cups chicken broth

1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes with juices

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried basil

Salt and pepper to taste

9 ounces cheese tortellini (fresh or frozen)

3 cups fresh spinach (or kale)

Grated Parmesan cheese (for serving)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Sausage: In a large pot or dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook until browned, breaking it apart with a wooden spoon, about 5-7 minutes.

    Sauté Vegetables: Drain excess fat if necessary. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Sauté for about 5 minutes, until the vegetables start to soften. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

      Add Broth and Tomatoes: Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes (with their juices). Stir in oregano, basil, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.

        Cook Tortellini: Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and add the tortellini. Cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, until the tortellini float to the top and are tender.

          Add Greens: Stir in the fresh spinach (or kale) and let the soup simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until the greens are wilted.

            Taste and Adjust: Taste the soup and adjust seasoning if necessary. It should be rich and flavorful.

              Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls, and top with grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley. Enjoy hot, fresh from the pot!
