This sausage, spinach, and tortellini soup is one of my go-to recipes when the weather starts to cool down here in the Midwest. It's hearty, comforting, and incredibly easy to make, which is perfect for those busy weeknights when you want something homemade but don't have hours to spend in the kitchen. I first stumbled upon a version of this recipe at a local potluck, and after a few tweaks, it became a staple in our household. The combination of savory sausage, tender tortellini, and fresh spinach in a flavorful broth is simply irresistible.
This soup pairs beautifully with a crusty loaf of bread or some garlic breadsticks to soak up the delicious broth. A simple side salad with a light vinaigrette can complement the richness of the soup. If you're feeling indulgent, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top of the soup adds an extra layer of flavor.
