Busy weeknights call for easy recipes like this delicious Tortellini Sausage soup with spinach. You will have dinner on the table in under 30 minutes with this easy recipe made in your Instant Pot.

Soup season is always a fun time of year. It coincides with casserole season and is a great time to try new recipes in your kitchen. A hearty soup on a cold winter’s day warms the soup while filling the tummy.

I have been making this Country Style 15 Bean Soup on the stovetop at least once a month. Beef broth and country-style ribs make this a scrumptious one-pot meal and the leftovers are great. Anything tortellini quickly becomes a favorite though.

1Tsp Salt
1 Tsp Black Pepper

Ingredient Substitutions and Variations

Cheese Stuffed Tortellini can be found in the refrigerated section of the grocery store. You will find a variety of flavors of tortellini to choose from, go ahead and get the one you like the most. Make the recipe your own. While I used the 19 oz. package, your store may have different size packages. Get the largest but not to exceed 19 ounces. If you feel like you want more soup broth than tortellini get a smaller package.

Fresh Spinach can be found in the produce department, generally in bags that are already washed, drained, and ready to use. Baby spinach is best because the leaves are smaller. If you cannot find baby spinach, you can chop up the spinach into smaller bite-size pieces prior to adding it to the recipe.

Sausage is our choice of meat for this instant pot soup recipe. I used turkey sausage but sometimes use a mild Italian sausage. You can also use ground beef, pork sausage, ground turkey, or Italian sausage. Any of these amazing flavors will be good in this creamy sausage tortellini soup.

Italian seasoning adds a delicious flavor to this tortellini soup recipe. You might like to keep Italian seasoning on hand for lots of recipes. It is a blend of basil, oregano, thyme, rosemary, and marjoram. You can grow your own herbs very easily at home. See my Guide to 15 Cooking Herbs You Can Grow at Home.

Optional Ingredients you may like to add a few red pepper flakes if your family enjoys a little heat. Diced onion can be cooked along with ground meat while it is browning. Minced garlic can be added along with the other ingredients in step two. You can substitute beef broth or vegetable broth for chicken broth if you would prefer either of those flavors in your easy tortellini soup.
