Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 small onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 14-oz can diced tomatoes
  • 6 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 20-oz package refrigerated cheese tortellini
  • 5 oz baby spinach
  • 1/3 cup heavy cream optional
  • Grated Parmesan for serving
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook the onion 4 minutes, then add the garlic and Italian seasoning and cook 30 seconds.
  2. Add the tomatoes with their juice and the broth. Bring to a rolling boil.
  3. Cook tortellini per package, usually 3 to 5 minutes. Check early to avoid mushy pasta.
  4. Turn off heat; stir in spinach until wilted by residual heat, under a minute.
  5. Stir in the cream if using, season, and serve with Parmesan on top.
