Making soup from scratch can seem like a rather intimidating task, but this one is simple enough that anybody should be able to accomplish it without fail.

It’s made even easier when you use frozen or fresh tortellini to create this soup. This also helps to cut down on a lot of the cooking time compared to other pasta, and they help to add in more flavors (and look pretty).

You can make this tortellini soup using your dutch oven or a large pot, and this recipe will make enough for leftovers (unless everyone goes back for seconds and thirds).

Topping your bowl of soup with some grated parmesan cheese also helps to add in a new flavor that works well with the soup!

How to Make this Tortellini Soup Recipe

1. In a large pot or dutch oven, heat your olive oil over medium heat.
2. Add in the sausage and cook until its almost browned.
3. Add in the herbs and the onion and cook until they are translucent.
4. Add in the garlic and cook until it is fragrant, which should be about 30 seconds.
5. Add in the carrots, celery, diced tomatoes, and the broth.
6. Bring the soup to a simmer and let it simmer for 15 minutes.
7. Add in the kale and the tortellini, cooking until the tortellini is done (this should be about 3 minutes).
8. Garnish with fresh parsley and parmesan cheese, if desired.

Can you freeze tortellini soup?

Choosing to freeze your leftover soup is normally a great idea when it comes to non-cream based soup like this sausage tortellini soup recipe, but unfortunately, this soup won’t do well with freezing. After thawing the soup, the noodles will become mushy.

If you still want to freeze your soup, remove all of the tortellini and freeze it without the pasta. Add in a new batch of tortellini when you reheat the leftovers and you should be fine.

How long will tortellini soup last?

When properly stored inside a covered pot or an airtight container within your fridge, your tortellini soup can last on average anywhere between 3 and 5 days.
