Happy Sunday, you guys!

I just had a session with the OWN Network and my Kleenex box.

That Iyanla has a way with words, you know? She made me weep like a little girl!

…I still can’t figure out how a dude can have 34 kids by 17 different women… That man was bizzay!

Also? Is it cool that I’ve got “Total Eclypse of the Heart” playing in the background? Meatloaf’s “Anything For Love” is next. N’Sync’s “Bye Bye Bye” is on there, too.

I found an old CD that I burned back in my college days on my old-as-Noah desktop computer. The monitor was so big, you couldn’t tell if it was a TV or a microwave.

I would blast this particular CD while getting ready. It took me for.evah to get ready because I had to dance to every song.
When I say dance, I mean I had the choreography down to the “T” for every song, thanks to MTV videos. Back then MTV was only about “The Real World” and Music Videos.

All I gotta say is, Thank GOD there was no smart phones back then, and social media was just an infant. There is no evidence! THANK YOU, JESUS!

But, yeah. TOMATO SOUP! I’m gonna soup-you-out before the season is over. Which is, like, the longest season, evvvvver!?! Why can’t I live where it’s always warm??
…Because my Mom lives here and I need her to help me with the kids… AND help me with eating all the food that comes out of my kitchen… AND I would miss her…

Want to know something? This soup is like eating Tomato Soup with a bunch of amazing stuff in it, like pasta and spinach. If you wanna dip your grilled cheese in there, you should totally do it! It’s delicious!

It’s so lovely and so rich, but sort of light at the same time. I kinda love it. A lot. The best part is that it takes about 30 minutes, from start to finish. That’s the icing on the cake.

So. It’s Sunday. If you have a pumpkin-patch-visit planned, just as I do, don’t worry, you’ll have plenty of time to get to this 30-minute meal. Just pick up a large loaf of crusty bread on your way back home. And cheese.

ENJOY!

  1. I have some leftover Italian Pasta sauce (homemade), seasoned with garlic, oregano & basil. Is it OK to use? Thanks!

  2. Is there a specific way this should be frozen?Can you freeze it with the tortellini already having been cooked?

  3. i made this for dinner tonight. It tasted awesome and was so filling! The only things I did differently was use my magic bullet to blend the diced tomatoes, cooked the tortellini in a different saucepan and added a veggie bullion cube instead of broth. Other than the garlic and onions, I didn’t add any other spices since the spaghetti sauce had so much flavor. Can’t wait to make it again!

  4. I made this today. I’m not much of a soup-maker, but have been wanting to try some. Per some of the comments, I used an immersion blender prior to adding the tortellini and spinach. This was a HUGE hit, even with the 11 yo picky eater who spotted the spinach, lol! It was SO good. I just served with garlic bread, and put out parmesan cheese for everyone to sprinkle in to their liking. YUM!

  5. Total keeper recipe. Added two links of Hot Italian turkey sausage and a tsp of both basil and oregano since I used plain cans of tomatoes. Fast and easy. Everyone liked it. Thanks for sharing!

  6. I just made this for dinner and I thought it was delicious 🙂 My husband is not a fan of the chunkyness in the soup from the onions and crushed tomatoes so next time I would puree the soup before adding the broth. I also thought it was a little watery (I like thicker soups though) so next time I’d boil out the broth a little more before adding tortellini and spinach. Thanks for the recipe!

  9. I made this for dinner a couple of nights ago, and the whole family loved it!! The kids loved that there was tortellini in the soup, and I love that so much flavor comes from the spaghetti sauce. It did make way more than we could eat, so I froze half of it and I’m hoping it will freeze well so we will have a delicious dinner for another night!

  11. Yummyyyy this looks so perfect especially with the rainy weather. Will be cooking this for thanksgiving dinner since my fiance is coming over 🙂 Thanks for sharing!

  12. I just made this soup – It is so flavourful! I halved the recipe and added 2 cups water with a vegetable bouillon cube instead of broth. After that the soup was pretty watery so I let it simmer w/o a lid for ten minutes before adding the tortellini for ten minutes more and adding the spinach at the end. Definitely a keeper!

  13. Thank goodness South Texas has finally realized fall is here! I am definitely going to make this soup for dinner tonight! Just need to run to the store. I am also going to add Italian sausage to make it a bit heartier (and so the men will eat it too). Can’t wait!

  18. What a delicious soup!! It finally “cooled” down here in Texas. We were 68 yesterday which is quite cool for us…lol. Can’t wait to make this soup!!

  22. Your tortellini soup is so delicious looking that I regretted not having a bag of frozen tortellini available so I could make it immediately. I like Campbell’s cream of tomato soup when I’m in a hurry and have no energy to make anything more demanding than soup and a grilled cheese sammy but your soup is very hearty and ‘stick to your rib-by’ for a hungry family. I love the chorizo, rice and bean one on the page as well.

  25. I used to do the same thing while I was getting ready for school. I HAD to blast music. It was my motivation to get on with the day!

    LOVE this soup, Kate! Tomato soup isn’t a soup that I typically eat. I need more substance to my soup – chunks of veggies, meat, rice or pasta. The tortellini in your tomato soup adds that substance I need!

  2. […] As mentioned in one of my previous blog posts, the month started out with travel frustrations and a sinus infection that knocked me on my ass. I honestly don’t remember the last time I felt that sick. It did, however, provide the perfect opportunity to try a spinach tortellini tomato soup. […]
