How to Make Cheesy Tortellini Soup
Full Directions are found on the printable recipe card located at the bottom of this post. This is a visual walk-through for readers.
Begin by adding Butter to the pot. Then, add in Onions and cook down. Mix in the Garlic and Red Pepper Flakes.
Now, add in your flour. Cook to help mix in with the liquid. This will be the Flour Roux for the sauce.
Add in the Broth, Tomatoes, and Tomato Paste and stir until combines. Pour in the Tortellini and bring to a boil.
You will boil for around 10 minutes or until the Tortellini is fully cooked.
Stir in the Shredded Parmesan Cheese, Heavy Whipping Cream, and Spices. Toss the Spinach Leaves in right before serving. This way, they will wilt away only a little.

Refrigerated or Dry Tortellini?
You can use either or even frozen. Just adjust the cook time as needed. Fresh Tortellini will only take around 5 minutes to cook, while dry can take between 10-12 minutes.
