This soup is another genesis from my son, which is a huge shocker because he doesn’t usually like foods that are too mixed. But tortellini is pretty kid friendly and he got to pick out the veggies that went in. I went with it because I knew it would be super easy to prepare! Success on all fronts! Pick your own sausage flavor - you pretty much can't go wrong.
Ingredients
2-4 sausage links, sliced into small discs or half-moons
¼ red onion, thick diced
½ red bell pepper, thick diced
4 oz button mushrooms, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
6 cups chicken stock
20 oz tortellini
1 cup snow peas
Instructions
- In a large dutch oven over medium heat, begin sauteing the sausage in olive oil until browned. Remove from pan.
- Add the onion, bell pepper and mushrooms and cook for 5-7 minutes. Add more oil as needed.
- Add garlic and saute 2-3 more minutes until garlic browns.
- Add chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer.
- Add tortellini and snap peas and cook according to package directions (about 5 minutes). While the tortellini cooks, taste the soup to evaluate the salt and seasoning. Some tasty potential additions include: Worcestershire sauce, a small dash of cumin, smoked paprika, hot sauce, etc.
