Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground Italian sausage hot or mild
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced

  • Next, add the basil, oregano, mustard powder and pepper to the skillet and stir to combine.
  • Slowly pour in broth and mix to combine. Then slowly add the heavy cream to the skillet. Stir to combine. Then bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.

Notes

  • FRIDGE: Store leftover soup, ideally separate from the tortellini, in an airtight container in the fridge for 3 to 4 days.
  • FREEZER: Leftovers will last up to 3 months in an airtight container kept in the freezer.
  • To reheat, add the soup to a pot and slowly heat it on the stove-top over medium heat.
