Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 2 minutes.
- Add 3 cloves of minced garlic and optional chopped mini sweet peppers to the hot oil. Sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in 2 cups of halved cherry tomatoes, 1.5 tablespoons of the Tuscan Marry Me Blend, and 1 teaspoon of sea salt. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Mix in 1–2 tablespoons of tomato paste and 3 tablespoons of organic all-purpose flour, stirring until smooth, about 1 minute.
- Gradually pour in 4 cups of chicken or vegetable broth, stirring constantly until the soup thickens slightly, about 3–4 minutes.
- Add 1 package (8 oz) of organic cheese tortellini, juice of half a lemon, 1 cup chopped kale, and 1 cup organic heavy cream. Simmer for 8–10 minutes.
- Ladle the soup into bowls while hot and sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan cheese on top.

Notes
Prep garlic and kale ahead of time for convenience. Avoid overcooking tortellini by adding them just before simmering. For a thicker soup, add an extra tablespoon of flour.
