- 1 pound ground Italian sausage hot or mild
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon oregano
- ½ teaspoon mustard powder
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 5 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups kale chopped
- 12 ounces frozen cheese tortellini
In a skillet cook and crumble sausage and diced onions on medium-high heat until the onions are softened and the sausage is cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Drain off any excess grease. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute or until fragrant.
Add the flour to the skillet, stir and cook for 1-2 minutes.
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.
Add the frozen tortellini and simmer for 7 minutes. Then add kale and simmer for an additional 3 minutes.
Serve immediately.
- 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.
