Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat to medium-high and add the Italian sausage. Cook thoroughly, breaking it up until browned and no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
- Sprinkle in the salt, ground black pepper, and all-purpose flour. Stir well for about 1-2 minutes to coat the sausage and vegetables.
- Pour in the tomato sauce, stirring to combine with the sausage mixture. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes.
- Add the cheese tortellini to the pot. Cook for approximately 5 minutes or until the tortellini are tender yet al dente.
- Reduce the heat to low and mix in the heavy cream, baby spinach, and chopped kale. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the greens wilt.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary, adding more salt or pepper to suit your preference.
- Ladle the warm soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.
