Tortellini Soup with Ground Meat

Ingredients

  • 6.7 oz Cherry or Grape Tomatoes
  • 1.7 oz babyspinat
  • 2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 lb Ground Beef
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 3 tbsp Tomato Paste
  • 2 cup Milk
  • 1 oz Flour
  • 3 1/4 cup Beef Broth
  • 1 lb tortellini
  • 1.7 oz Parmesan Cheese
  • Salt
  • pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Halve the tomatoes and finely chop the spinach.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a large pot and brown the ground meat vigorously, seasoning with salt, pepper, and paprika powder. Add the tomato paste and sauté briefly. Stir in the cherry tomatoes.

  3. 3

    Whisk together flour and milk in a bowl, then add to the pot along with the beef broth and tortellini. Bring to a boil, then simmer for 5 minutes over medium heat.

  4. 4

    Stir in spinach and Parmesan cheese, heat briefly, and season the soup with salt and pepper.

I absolutely love how the creaminess of the broth balances the acidity of the tomatoes; it's such a cozy, rustic meal. While not as light as a traditional Italian Minestrone, this hearty version feels like a warm hug in a bowl, offering a deep, savory taste that is simply irresistible.
