List of Ingredients




1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
4 cups (32 ounces) chicken broth
9 ounces fresh cheese tortellini
1 28-ounce can crushed tomatoes
1 5-ounce package fresh baby spinach, cut into chiffonade or coarsely chopped
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese




Recipe



Heat the olive oil in a stock pot over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook, stirring often, for 3 minutes.

Add the chicken broth. Bring to a boil and stir in the tortellini. Simmer uncovered until the tortellini is cooked, 7 to 9 minutes. Stir in the crushed tomatoes and simmer another 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook until just wilted. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.

Ladle into bowls and top with generous sprinklings of grated Parmesan.

Makes 6 servings.
