Cold weather and cold and flu season means it's time for more SOUP!

We love to make Pressure-cooker Chicken Noodle Soup to keep us all healthy (there are added immunity fighting ingredients like turmeric!). And this Wonton Noodle Soup recipe is a fave when we're craving take-out.

We LOVE this Sausage Tortellini Soup recipe so much, and make it often for the WFH (work from home) lunch. In fact, We made it for lunch the other day, then we all had leftovers for dinner that night, along with some homemade Garlic Parmesan Knots. Hubby approves, and he can be a bit particular when it comes to soups!

Sausage Tortellini Soup

There are times when a super hearty Pressure-cooker Chili is called for. But these days, We'm truly digging this Sausage Tortellini Soup recipe.

We've been making different versions of Sausage Tortellini Soup over the years, but We've finally got it to a recipe that We can share with all of you.

❤️ Why you'll love this soup

This Sausage Tortellini Soup is tomato-based, which gives you an extra little kick of Vitamin C.

The mix of veggies, meat, beans, and pasta create a hearty, satisfying soup that can warm you up on the coldest of nights. It truly fills you up!

🥕 Ingredient notes

This soup is made with items that you most likely already have in your pantry and refrigerator or freezer.

Tortellini– We have used both frozen cheese tortellini and fresh cheese tortellini from the deli aisle. Both are fantastic, and We've included cooking times for both in the recipe below.

Italian Sausage – Ground Italian sausage adds some nice depth of flavor to this soup.

Onions and Garlic – The flavor base of all good soups!

Celery– We like adding this for additional texture and vitamins and minerals.

Beans – This soup is absolutely tasty with pinto beans. But you can use almost any other can of beans you happen to have on hand!

Sausage Tortellini Soup Substitution Suggestions

This soup is also so simple to customize to suit your personal taste preferences.

For instance, We used pinto beans in the soup. You could easily substitute with cannelini beans or kidney beans.

Even though the soup is called Sausage Tortellini Soup, you could use ground turkey instead of Italian sausage.

For an extra hit of healthy vegetables, try adding some kale, spinach, or cut up zucchini to this soup.
