Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 large carrot, peeled and chopped

2 stalks celery, chopped

1 zucchini, diced

6 cups vegetable broth (low sodium)

1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, with juices

1 teaspoon dried basil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

2 cups fresh spinach or kale, chopped

1 package (9 oz) fresh or frozen cheese tortellini

Salt and pepper to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.

    Add the Carrots and Celery: Toss in the chopped carrot and celery. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened.

      Zucchini and Spices: Add the diced zucchini, vegetable broth, and diced tomatoes (with juices) into the pot. Stir in the dried basil, oregano, and red pepper flakes (if using).

        Simmer: Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce heat to low. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.

          Tortellini Time: Add the tortellini to the soup and cook according to the package directions (usually around 3-5 minutes for fresh tortellini).

            Add Greens: Stir in the fresh spinach or kale, and continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until wilted.

              Season: Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed.

                Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
