Tortellini Soup

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted stick margarine
  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 cups, low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 1- 14 1/2 oz can of Italian-style stewed tomatoes (no salt added)
  • 3 cups forzen cheese tortellini (I used an entire package actually, which was about 3 cups worth)
  • 1- 10 oz package of frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  1. In a large non-stick saucepan or Dutch oven, melt the margarine. Add the mushrooms and garlic; cook, stirring as needed, until softened, 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add the broth, tomatoes and 3 cups of water; bring to a boil. Add the tortellini; return to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring as needed, until the tortellini are cooked, about 10 minutes. Stir in the spinach and return to a boil. Serve, sprinkled with the pepper.
