Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb sausage casings removed and formed into tiny balls
  • 1/2 cup onion finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup carrot chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves minced
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 6 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 1 lb tortellini fresh or frozen
  • 1 lb bag fresh spinach washed and roughly chopped
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan freshly grated
  • 2 cups heavy cream or whole milk
  • 1/2 tsp nutmeg freshly grated

Instructions
 

  • Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in your dutch oven or large pot on med-high heat. Add the sausage balls and cook until browned and cooked through. Remove them from the pot and set aside.
  • In the same pot, sauté the onions, carrots until softened. Then add the garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir, creating a thickening base for the broth.
  • Slowly pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, whisking as you go to avoid lumps. Add the tortellini and bring the soup to a gentle simmer, cook a few minutes just until the tortellini is tender. Add in the cooked sausage balls.
  • Reduce the heat, then add the fresh spinach, stirring until it wilts. Pour in the heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and a dash of nutmeg, stirring until the cheese melts. Simmer a few minutes and serve!
