Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1 bell pepper, chopped (any color)
  • 1 zucchini, diced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes (with juices)
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 9 oz fresh or frozen tortellini (cheese or veggie)
  • 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
  • Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat the Oil: In a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil.
  2. Sauté Onions and Garlic: Add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
  3. Add Carrots and Celery: Stir in the diced carrots and celery. Cook for about 5 minutes until they start to soften.
  4. Incorporate Bell Pepper and Zucchini: Add the chopped bell pepper and diced zucchini. Stir for an additional 3 minutes.
  5. Pour in Broth and Tomatoes: Add the vegetable broth and canned tomatoes (with their juices). Bring to a gentle boil.
  6. Season the Soup: Stir in the dried basil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Let the soup simmer for about 10 minutes to blend flavors.
  7. Cook the Tortellini: Add the tortellini to the pot and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes.
  8. Add Spinach: In the last minute of cooking, add the fresh spinach leaves. They will wilt quickly.
  9. Adjust Seasoning: Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.
  10. Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Notes

  • Feel free to customize the vegetables based on what you have on hand.
  • This soup is great for meal prep; it stores well in the refrigerator.
  • To make it vegan, omit the Parmesan cheese or use a dairy-free alternative.
