Spinach Tortellini Soup For One
When short on time but still wanting a warm and nourishing light meal idea, try my easy-peasy spinach tortellini soup for one recipe. This has become one of my favorite soup recipes that I make very often.
If you are looking for a quick and easy recipe when either in a hurry or just something filling yet simple when you don’t have much time, this is a great recipe to have on hand.
You can use cheese tortellini like I did in this recipe or meat tortellini works great too. The meat is a bit more hearty so, on those days you want to fill up a little more, that may be the way to go. You can also find tri-color, both come in cheese and meat and basically tastes similar to the regular one you see all over but has a nice colorful appearance.
This recipe takes only a few minutes to prepare using my shortcut way.
I buy a bag of fresh spinach either baby or regular spinach that has already been washed. That saves a lot of time for sure. I also buy grated or shredded carrots in a bag that also has been washed.
So, it’s a win win especially when it’s a rush to get something to eat in a jiffy.
I do make this soup for lunch a lot. Since I work from the house, why not make myself a healthy and delicious lunch?
S0metimes when I’m really hungry, I’ll make myself a grilled cheese or half of turn sandwich to go along with the soup.
The recipe does heat up nicely. I send this to school for my son since there is a microwave in his cafeteria and also to my husband to take to the office. He also has a microwave to heat up food I send him with.
