Steps

1. 1

   Set a soup pot over heat and add the Italian turkey sausage and shallot or yellow onion. Let them cook; the source does not specify a heat level or duration.

2. 2

   Add the paprika, basil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper to the meat, then mix to distribute the seasonings.

3. 3

   Add the tomato paste. Mix it in thoroughly and let it cook briefly; no exact time is given.

4. 4

   Pour in the chicken broth, then add the sun-dried tomatoes and spinach. Stir everything together.

5. 5

   Let the soup simmer for a little while; the source does not give a duration.

6. 6

   Add the half-and-half, Italian cheese, and light cream cheese. Mix until combined.

7. 7

   Add a couple of cups of tortellini. If using uncooked tortellini, boil it in the soup until cooked; alternatively, add tortellini that has already been cooked. The source does not specify a cooking time.

8. 8

   Serve when ready, or let the soup simmer longer if you would like it to thicken. The creator serves it with an Italian side salad and crusty bread.

Notes

The source does not specify amounts for the shallot or onion, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, salt, or pepper. It also gives no precise heat settings or cooking durations. Serving size of five is based on a commenter's report, not the creator's stated yield.
