Tomato Spinach Tortellini Soup

In a large pot, heat the olive oil, add the onion and sauté for approximately 5 minutes. Add the garlic and sauté for another minute. Stir in the ground tomatoes and tomato paste.

Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to avoid burning the tomatoes.

Once boiled, add in the tortellini. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.

Stir in the cream and Parmesan cheese. Add in the spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the red pepper flakes if desired.

Add in the basil to finish.
