Cozy weeknight soup made in just 30 min! It’s so easy.. Loaded with tender tortellini, sausage and kale.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 pound Italian sausage, casing removed

• 3 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 medium sweet onion, diced

• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning

• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

• 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

• 4 cups chicken stock

• 1 (8-ounce) can tomato sauce

• 1 (9-ounce) package refrigerated three cheese tortellini

• 1/2 bunch kale, stems removed and leaves chopped

• 1/3 cup Farmer's All Natural heavy cream

• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil

• Crusty bread

DIRECTIONS:

1. Heat olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add Italian sausage and cook until browned, about 3-5 minutes, making sure to crumble the sausage as it cooks; drain excess fat.

2. Stir in garlic, onion and Italian seasoning. Cook, stirring frequently, until onions have become translucent, about 2-3 minutes; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

3. Whisk in flour until lightly browned, about 1 minute.

4. Gradually whisk in chicken stock and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced and slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.

5. Stir in tortellini; cover and cook until tender, about 5-7 minutes.

6. Stir in kale until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Stir in heavy cream and basil until heated through, about 1 minute; season with salt and pepper, to taste.

7. Serve immediately with crusty bread.

Serves 4-6
