Made with leftover turkey and cheese tortellini, this Italian turkey tortellini soup recipe is full of warm and cozy comfort. It's a satisfying and easy weeknight dinner, and just as perfect for a weekend meal with friends. Serve with crusty French bread for an easy and complete meal any night.

Ingredients

8 cups low sodium turkey broth or chicken broth
1 cup thinly sliced carrots about 2 large
½ cup thinly sliced celery about 2 ribs
1 can 14.5 oz. diced tomatoes with Italian seasonings
2 cups diced or shredded cooked turkey
1 large clove garlic minced
1.5 teaspoon dried Italian herb mix
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon kosher salt or to taste
2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves
1 package 9 oz. refrigerated three-cheese tortellini
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring turkey broth to a simmer. Add carrots, celery, and garlic, and simmer for 5 minutes.
Stir in tomatoes, turkey, Italian herb mix, black pepper, and simmer 10 more minutes. Taste test, and then add desired amount of kosher salt - as different broths, tomatoes, and turkey will have varying amounts of salt. Depending on your broth, if you are looking for a bit more flavor depth you could always add a little Turkey Better Than Bouillon.
Turn heat up just a bit. Stir in tortellini and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in spinach and cook until tortellini is done.
Serve immediately, garnishing individual servings with freshly grated Parmesan (I recommend this grater) - such a wonderfully tasty finishing touch!
