- 1 lb Italian sausage
- 1 small yellow onion diced
- 2 large carrots peeled and diced
- 4 cloves garlic minced about 3-4 teaspoons
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 5 cup chicken broth
- 14 oz refrigerated cheese tortellini 1- to 12-ounce pkg also works
- ½ tsp kosher sea salt
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 6 - 8 oz fresh spinach chopped
- 2 cup half and half or heavy cream
- Salt and pepper to taste
In a large pot, cook the sausage until browned. Drain any fat and set the sausage aside.
Sauté onions, and carrots, for about 5 minutes or until the vegetables are soft. Add the garlic and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until fragrant, stirring occasionally to prevent it from burning.
Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add in the chicken broth, whisk to combine. Continue cooking until the mixture reaches a simmer, then reduce heat and simmer for about 6 minutes.
Add sausage, tortellini, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, spinach, and half & half. Simmer for 5 minutes, or until the tortellini is fully cooked.
Serve immediately.
