Cook Veggies: Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium high heat, then add onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook for 5 minutes, until the veggies soften.
Boil & Simmer: Stir in the Italian seasoning, salt, black pepper, vegetable broth, and diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for about 5 minutes. Or until the carrots begin to soften.
Add Tortellini: Stir in cheese tortellini and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the pasta is tender.
Add Spinach and Heavy Cream: Reduce the heat to low. Then stir in fresh baby spinach, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and fresh basil. Cook until the spinach has wilted, about 2 minutes.
Alyssa’s Pro Tip
Make it Your Own! Swap the veggie broth for chicken broth. Or try a tortellini with chicken, spinach, or mushrooms. You could even switch it up with gnocchi or mini ravioli. Just have fun and make it your own!
