This Creamy Sausage Tortellini Soup with Kale is a hearty and comforting meal that’s ready in just 30 minutes. Loaded with sausage, cheesy tortellini, Italian herbs, kale, and cream, every bite is so filling and luscious!
Heat a large dutch oven pot or soup pot over medium-high heat.
Add the olive oil and onions and cook for 5 minutes.
In the same pot, add the cut sausage and sauté until browned, 3 minutes.
Turn the heat to medium-low and add the garlic, oregano, and tomato paste, cook for an additional 1 minute.
Add the chicken stock, bay leaf, and canned tomatoes. Bring to a boil, season with salt, and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
While soup cooks, prep the kale by removing the stems and chopping them into thin strips.
Remove the bay leaf. Add the kale, tortellini, and heavy cream to the pot. Turn down the heat to medium-low, and let it simmer for an additional 3-5 minutes until the kale is wilted and the pasta is cooked through.
Remove the soup from heat. Ladle into bowls, top with parmesan cheese, and serve with crusty bread.
