{soups-salads-and-salad-dressings} Sausage, White Bean and Tortellini Soup

 

Sausage, White Bean and Tortellini Soup
From Food Network Kitchens

4 servings

1 tablespoon olive oil
4 ounces hot or sweet Italian sausage, removed from casings
1 onion, chopped
1 medium rib celery, chopped (about 2/3 cup)
One 15-ounce can white beans, such as cannellini or navy, rinsed and
drained
One 15-ounce can diced tomatoes
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
One 8- to 9-ounce package of your favorite refrigerated tortellini
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup prepared pesto
Grated Parmesan, for serving

Heat the oil in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the sausage and
cook, breaking the meat up with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 4
minutes. Add the onions and celery and continue to cook, stirring,
until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the beans,
tomatoes, broth and 4 cups water and increase the heat to medium-high
to bring to a simmer. Continue to simmer, adjusting the heat if
necessary, until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes.

Add the tortellini and continue to cook until they are tender, about 10
minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve in bowls topped
with a spoonful of pesto and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan.
