Ingredients
  

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

8 ounces mushrooms, sliced (button or cremini)

4 cups vegetable broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried thyme

Salt and pepper, to taste

9 ounces fresh or frozen cheese tortellini

3 cups fresh spinach

Optional: Fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Sauté Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes until it becomes translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender and browned.

    Add Broth: Pour in the vegetable broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to release any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom. Bring to a gentle simmer.

      Incorporate Cream and Cheese: Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well until the cheese is melted and the soup is creamy. Season with dried oregano, dried thyme, salt, and pepper to taste.

        Cook Tortellini: Add the tortellini to the pot and cook according to package instructions, typically around 3-5 minutes for fresh tortellini or 7-10 minutes for frozen.

          Add Spinach: Once the tortellini is cooked, gently stir in the fresh spinach until wilted. Remove the soup from heat.

            Serve: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious creamy soup!
