Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 onion, chopped (yellow or sweet)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken broth (low-sodium if preferred)
- 1 can diced tomatoes (14.5 oz)
- 2 cups cheese tortellini (fresh or refrigerated)
- 2 cups spinach (baby spinach)
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Add 1 pound ground turkey and cook, breaking it up, until browned and no longer pink. Drain excess fat if there’s a lot.
- Stir in the chopped onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 3–4 minutes.
- Pour in 4 cups chicken broth and the 14.5 oz can of diced tomatoes. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
- Add 2 cups cheese tortellini and 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook 5–7 minutes, or until the tortellini is tender.
- Stir in 2 cups spinach and cook just until wilted, about 1 minute.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve hot.
Notes
Use low-sodium broth to control salt. If you only have frozen tortellini, add a couple extra minutes to the simmer. For a richer finish, stir in 1/4 cup grated Parmesan at the end.
