Gwen's Sausage Tortellini Soup

As the weather turns bitterly cold, my craving for comfort food grows. After a long day of working outside in the weather, coming home to a fresh steamy pot of delicious soup is just the thing you need to warm you up from the inside.


Gwen's Sausage Tortellini Soup Recipe


Ingredients:

1 package of sausage links

2 32oz boxes of Chicken Broth

1 can of carrots

1 handful of raw spinach

1/2 tablespoon minced garlic

salt

pepper

1 yellow or white onion

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 cup flour

1 family sized package of refrigerated three cheese tortellini

4 cups of shredded white cheddar cheese

2 cups heavy whipping cream


Brown sausage links in a skillet. Chop them up with a spatula. When they are cooked thoroughly, transfer them to a big pot.


Chop up the onion and saute it in the skillet with the leftover sausage grease.

Add minced garlic and a tablespoon of olive oil. Saute for approx. 5 mins.


Go ahead and add more garlic if you'd like :)


Add 1/4 cup of flour to the skillet and a splash of chicken broth to loosen up the good stuff. Mix well.


Transfer the contents of the skillet into the big pot.


Add 8 cups of chicken broth and 2 cups of heavy whipping cream.

Drain the carrots and add them to the pot.

Add a handful of raw spinach to the pot and stir.


Bring the pot to a boil, then turn down the heat to simmer and add 4 cups of shredded white cheddar cheese, stirring continuously until cheese melts.


Simmer for 1 hour.


Serve with garlic breadsticks as a side.


Enjoy!


Gwen
