Spinach Tortellini Soup


I got this recipe from my sister and it was really good.  It makes a lot so it's good for a big crowd.  Here it is:

-3/4 c. onion, chopped
-1 tsp. garlic
-1 tbsp. olive oil
-8 c. chicken broth
-2 c. water
-1 tsp. sugar
-1/4 tsp. salt
-1/4 tsp. pepper
-1 pkg. cheese tortellini (frozen or dry)
-1 28  oz can diced or crushed tomatoes
-1 pkg. frozen spinach, thawed, drained, chopped and dried.
-parmesan cheese

1. In a large saucepan, saute onion and garlic in oil.
2. Add broth, water, sugar, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil.
3. Add tortellini and cook according to package instructions (usually 8-14 minutes). Reduce heat.
4. Stir in tomatoes and spinach. Heat through (don't boil).
5. Serve with parmesan cheese.

You can make this in less than 30 minutes and it's incredibly filling. Enjoy!
