Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large Dutch oven, crumble the Italian turkey sausage and add the chopped onion. Cook over medium heat for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is no longer pink and starts to brown.
- Add minced garlic to the pot and sauté for another minute until fragrant.
- Stir in the reduced-sodium chicken broth, water, and diced tomatoes, increasing the heat to bring the mixture to a boil.
- Once boiling, add the refrigerated cheese tortellini to the pot and cook for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally until the tortellini float and are nearly tender.
- Reduce the heat and gently fold in the fresh baby spinach, basil, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts.
- Ladle the Tortellini Soup into warm bowls, and top each serving with shredded Parmesan cheese, if desired.

Notes
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days. Avoid freezing with tortellini as they may alter texture upon reheating.
