This soup was SO good! This recipe made enough for our little family of 2 to eat for 4 or 5 meals...but I loved every bite of it! It had the perfect spice and so much flavor............
Italian turkey Sausage soup with Cheese Tortellini
adapted from The girl who ate everything who adapted it from Allrecipes :)

1 lb Italian turkey sausage
1 medium onion, chopped
1 t. minced garlic
6 C. beef broth
1/2 C. water
2 (14.5 ounce) cans Italian diced tomatoes
1/2 T. packed fresh basil leaves
1/2 t. dried oregano
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
1 (16 oz) bag of frozen veggies
8 ounces fresh cheese tortellini pasta


1. In a large pot, brown turkey sausage.

2. Add onions and garlic to turkey sausage a couple of minutes before its browned and saute. Stir in beef broth, water, tomatoes, basil, oregano, and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.

3. Stir in veggies. Simmer covered for 30 minutes. Add tortellini during the last 10 minutes. Serve with warm garlic bread.

*the other recipe said to put carrots in during step 2 so I picked all mine out of the frozen veggies and threw them in..but I think they would turn out fine if you threw them in in step 3....I'm going to try it that way next time...
