How to Make Tortellini In Brodo

  1. Bring 8 cups of chicken or beef broth to a boil in a large pot.
  2. Add 1 (14-ounce) package of frozen cheese tortellini to the boiling broth.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir gently, and cook for 10-12 minutes, or until the tortellini are cooked through and float to the surface. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  4. While the tortellini cook, prepare the spinach: wash and roughly chop 2 cups of fresh spinach leaves.
  5. Once the tortellini are cooked, ladle the soup into individual bowls.
  6. Add a handful of the chopped spinach to each bowl, allowing it to wilt slightly from the heat of the broth.
  7. Finish each bowl with a pinch of lemon zest (about 1/2 teaspoon) and a generous grating of Parmesan cheese (about 2 tablespoons).
  8. Serve immediately with crusty bread and a glass of your favorite wine.
  9. Enjoy!
