    Sometimes I think it's still soup season, and then the weather decides it was to be on the warmer side again when I make a pot of soup. It's so hard to predict how it's going to be because mother nature is constantly changing. Ugh!

    Oh well. My hubby is still going to enjoy this one pot creamy tomato tortellini soup! Even though I would like to face plant into a bowl of this soup, I am going to have to pass because I am dieting. My willpower is starting to get stronger each and every day. I would LOVE a big bowl of this soup with a buttered and toasted slice of bread! I did taste it now and then when I was making it, so I know it's delicious.

    Love tomato soup? Dislike condensed cans of soup? Me too! Skip the canned condensed tomato soup, please for me! You can create this flavorful tomato soup in no time.

    20-Minute Tuscan Chicken with Penne Pasta

    If you love one-pot soups, you are going to LOVE one-pot tomato and basil tortellini soup or my one-pot creamy sausage and potato soup!

    I immediately know what ingredients I wanted to use to resemble a condensed tomato soup: springs of fresh rosemary, fresh basil, dried oregano, and dried thyme. Yep. Those are your typical Italian soup and sauce basic. Not to worry if you do not have fresh rosemary or basil, you can find the measurements for dried.

     

    Love one-pot pasta dishes? Try our 15-minute one-pot taco pasta, 20-minute Tuscan chicken with penne pasta, or our one-pot summer vegetable pasta - to die for!

    Every soup or pasta dish I make I love to use my dutch oven. If you do not own one, it is my most used kitchen pot. It keeps things an even cooking temperature since it is made out of cast iron and perfect for throwing into the oven. Hands down...the BEST!!

    If you do not make your chicken stock from scratch, I highly recommend this brand of chicken stock. I always like to get the unsalted kind because I like to add salt to my taste.

      If you do this in the slow cooker, does the heavy cream curdle?

        I would recommend adding the tortellini and the heavy cream last. They only need approximately 15-20 minutes.

        Hi, Nancy! The rosemary is not prominent in this soup at all. It's mostly used to bring all of the flavors together in the soup. I think you will enjoy it, and if you do try it, please let me know how you like it! It's one of our favorites even during the summer. 🙂

        Great question, Camille. I would recommend not thawing the tortellini and adding it at the same time as the refrigerated tortellini. It may take a few minutes to cook.

      I definitely want to try this soup again, the soup became really thick and the tortellini absorbed a lot, it turned into tortellini with a tomato sauce. which strangely enough is an excellent side dish for my meatloaf

      • Chelsea says

        October 24, 2016 at 1:46 pm

        The tortellini does absorb some of the liquid, but it shouldn't absorb it all. I notice if there are leftovers that most of the liquid is absorbed the next day. I haven't had a problem with it after it was finished cooking, though!

I used basil crushed tomatoes because I didn't want chunks, subbed the tortellini for gnocchi only because I've made something similar to this before and it was too rich for me with the tortellini, and I also added spicy chicken Italian sausage!

      Rarely do I make something that *everyone* in my family adores, but this did it! It was so good. I can attest that crushed tomatoes work just fine. I did start off by cooking two sweet Italian turkey sausages, without casings, and then chopping them finely and adding them with the tomatoes. I don't think the recipe needed it, but it pushed it over the top. This is delicious. A keeper! Thank you.

      This is an amazing recipe! I love tomato soups and sauces but have never made my own. It is so delicious! And for anyone reading the comments, I used whole canned tomatoes and just sort of "smooshed" them as they cooked and there were no pieces of tomato in my soup. It was just a nice, smooth, delicious, mildly creamy tomato soup with tortellini, I did also have a problem with the tortellini absorbing too much of the soup but I had turned my back on it and it had boiled. No boiling next time (and there will be a next time!) and I may use half to two thirds of a package of tortellini. It'll still have that tomatoey goodness and there will be plenty of tortellini to go around.

        could you use chicken broth instead of stock ?

      I wonder if using vegetable stock (to make the recipe vegetarian) would change the flavor drastically. Sounds fabulous!!

      So good! I had to use unsweetened almond milk as I’m gluten and dairy free. I made the tortellini on the side, so that the family could pour the soup over it. I also went with crushed tomatoes so that the soup had a very smooth, creamy texture. Everyone loved it!

      I love this recipe. We freeze the leftovers and when we eat them a month or two later it tastes as good as it did the day it was made. I also use fire roasted died tomatoes and it adds an additional depth of flavor. Thanks.

      This turned out very tasty! I didn't change the recipe at all when I made it. But I'd suggest using less tortellini and (separate suggestion) cooking it for half as long. There was so much tortellini in this, the ratio to soup was way off. It wasn't really soup anymore.

      This was an amazing recipe ! I used dry tortellini from Trader Joe’s and I had to add extra water so it would cook through. But I would think a package of tortellini from the cold case at the grocery store wouldn’t need extra water.
      I also added zucchini near the end and it was delicious.
      Thanks for such a great recipe. The family loved it- even my picky 4 year old ate all of her helping.

      This is such a delicious and satisfying soup and so easy to put together with pantry staples. The first time I made it as written. So good! Last night I made a few subs based on what I had on hand and also so good! I used 16oz frozen tricolor cheese tortellini and, since I didn't have heavy cream and had a partially used can of coconut milk open, used coconut milk instead of the cream. I was wanting super creaminess and also had half a block of cream cheese lying around so I added that in too. I don't like to add parm to the pot because it just sticks to the pot so I usually sprinkle it on top once it's in the bowls, but last night I forgot and maybe because of the cream cheese didn't miss it at all. All versions of this now on regular rotation. Thanks!

      This is one of our faves! I usually make it in the Dutch oven but we have a crazy sports filled evening tomorrow and I wanted to try it in the slow cooker. I can’t find the directions how to do it though. How would you suggest doing it that way? Thanks!

      Made this tonight and my family loved it. I used 6 cups of blended garden tomatoes ipo the canned tomatoes and sauce. Was trying to use up veggies so I added chopped celery, mushrooms, green pepper and baby spinach. I used 3 cups of tortellini which was half of my 750 gram package. Easy and delicious! Thanks for the recipe. It’s a keeper!

      My husband found this recipe and shared it with the girls and me. The girls and I were skeptical this would be something we would like. It was so good, and everyone was quick to mention it should be in the dinner rotation from now on. Usually we have leftovers but not last night.

      I made this exactly as-is. Personally, I loved it as I knew I would. I was quite surprised to see my kids and husband liked it as well (they have particularly boring taste). I served theirs either over or with basmati rice. I liked mine as a soup better 🙂 Thank you for the recipe - it couldn't have been easier and I look forward to making it again!

      Love this recipe!! Perfect cold winter night meal. Only change I make is adding in some spinach when I add the tortellini and let it cook down. Adds some nice color to the soup 😊

      This is a keeper! I did double the recipe. I used both crushed & diced tomatoes that I ran thru my chopper. I ened up having to use 2c beef broth + 6c chicken because I ran out, couldn't tell difference. I did add the sausage & spinach, cooked day before added w tomatoes. Added the cream near end simmered 5 min then the tortellini. Topped w shredded parm & served w cheesy garlic bread. Family ♡ sending leftovers to coworkers
      Thanks for great recipe & reviewers suggestions
