Notes

There’s no need to drain the sausage after cooking, as the fat adds flavor and richness to the soup.
This recipe has only been tested using frozen tortellini. If you are using fresh or dry tortellini, keep in mind the cooking time will vary, and the amount of broth may need adjusting.
Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days and reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave.
