Tortellini Soup with Italian Sausage
My friend Jana made this soup for us a while back when she had us over for dinner. It was so incredibly delicious that I immediately started pestering her for the recipe. Luckily for me (and you!), she was happy to share! I’ve made it a couple of times since then and it’s quickly become one of my new favorites. The tomato basil broth is robust and full of flavor, which makes it the perfect backdrop for crumbled Italian sausage and cheesy tortellini. And like so many soups, it’s packed with veggies, which I love. Serve this with crusty Roasted Garlic & Rosemary No Knead Artisan Bread or a warm loaf of Homemade French Bread for a near perfect rainy day meal!

What is Tortellini Soup?
Tortellini are a small ravioli type of filled pasta. They are often filled with meat or cheese and you can buy them fresh in the refrigerated pasta section at your local supermarket. I love to keep some on hand in my fridge of freezer for recipes like this soup or my Cheesy Tortellini & Chicken Pumpkin Alfredo Bake because they make throwing dinner together so easy! This recipe uses cheese tortellini in a broth made from tomatoes and beef broth. The added Italian sausage and vegetables help to round out the flavors and textures to complete this wonderful dish. This easy sausage tortellini soup is a hearty and filling soup recipe that incorporates so many things in one delicious bowl.
How to Make Tortellini Soup With Italian Sausage
How Long Will Tortellini Soup Last?
Cooked Tortellini soup will last about 3-5 days in the fridge, although really this is a soup that is best right after it’s made. That’s because the tortellini tend to continue to cook and will absorb some of the liquid after the soup is done. Don’t get me wrong – the soup still tastes good – just not quite as good as when the soup is fresh, in my opinion.
Can I Use Any Type of Tortellini?
There are so many different types of tortellini out there that you can buy from the grocery store. While the cheese one compliments this dish well, you can really use any tortellini variety that you want.
Can You Freeze Tortellini Soup?
I don’t recommend freezing leftovers of this soup unless you first remove the tortellini. You can always add a new batch of tortellini later when you reheat the frozen soup.
