This soup is incredibly delicious. Sensationally Simple. I am telling you if you make anything for dinner this week...this is your go to recipe.
Thank you to my dear friend Tracy Hoogenboom who sends me the best stuff. She's the bomb cook. I miss her...her dog and frankly her beach house. I promise in that order.
Enjoy!

Chicken Sausage, Tortellini and Artichoke Soup
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- one chopped onion
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 pound Italian chicken sausage, casings removed and meat broken into chunks (or cut up...I use the sausage with jalapano's in it!)
- 3 cans (15 oz. each) reduced-sodium chicken broth (or whatever you have)
- 1 pound frozen artichoke hearts, thawed and halved (Or 2 cans w/o marinade)
- 1 pkg fresh spinach..whole baby leafs are perfect.
- Cheese or other fresh tortellini (I buy mine at Target by the cheeses)
- Parmesan cheese
- Preparation
- 1. Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook sausage, onions and garlic until cooked though, stirring often, 10 minutes. Add broth, artichokes, and 2 cups water and bring to a boil.
- 2. Reduce heat to a simmer. Add spinach and tortellini, cook, covered, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Ladle soup into bowls and serve with freshly grated parm cheese and bread.
Tip: I double this recipe. It actually gets better the next day...add more chicken broth or water as needed for more broth.
Tammy, Your recipe sounds absolutely delicious and definitely simple enough. I very much like all of the ingredients you have combined for making this fabulous, flavorful and hearty soup. I love soup of any kind and am sure yours will become one of my favorites.
