Italian Sausage-Tortellini Soup

This Italian Sausage-Tortellini Soup is rich and full-flavored. With highlighted with Italian spices and richness from onion, garlic, and three different layers of tomato-y flavor.

Just so, so deeply, satisfyingly, perfectly good. Hearty enough for a winter supper, yet light enough for warmer months: it’s really perfect nearly all year ’round.
