Tortellini and Spinach Chowder – My resistance factor is a big fat 0!
Only to brag a little, this is probably one of top 3-5 soup recipes that I have ever had – bar none:)
Ok – enough of the bragging. I’ll put this out there and let you all test it and see if you agree.
Ingredients
1lb Italian Sausage
1/2 to 3/4 White Onion (basically just do the onion to taste).
6 Cloves of garlic
.5 to 1.0 Lbs Portabello mushrooms (to taste as well)
2 Tbls butter
About 2 cups of frozen spinich
3-4 Carrots, peeled and diced
4 Cups of Chicken Broth (home made is best. Just take the skins or scaps from a chicken and boil them for about 10 minutes and you’ll have a much better flavor)
1 Can (10 oz) Cream of mushroom soup
9-12 oz of Cheese Tortellini cooked and drained
Pepper
Basil
Thyme
2 Quarts Half-and-half cream
1Cup Romano/Parmesean/Asiago cheese mix
Start boiling the water, and get the tortellini going. Start cooking the sausage and drain it when done. Don’t completely clean out that pan, use it to cook the veggies in. Add butter to the pan, then put in the onions, garlic and mushrooms. Cook, until tender.
If you don’t mind making a few more dishes, at the same time you start the sausage and veggies, get the Chicken broth, carrots going. Once the carrots are soft, add the spinach. Once the spinach has warmed up put in the mushroom and onion mixture.
Once that warms up, add the cream of mushroom soup, tortellini, pepper, basil, thyme. Once that mixes through add the half and half and finally the cheese mix.
Now, do your best to resist eating it all in one setting:)

Wow! Thank you. Although this recipe was a little bit above my culinary abilities, with a little deciphering, my sister and I made a great tasting meal.
This sounds like an excellent soup. A combination of great tastes and healthy ingredients. I am definitely saving this to try myself.
This was ever so scrumptious. We just ate it for days, we made so much and it was so tasty.
