One-Pot Vegetable Tortellini Soup

Step 1

In a large pot, warm the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot and celery then cook for 5 minutes. Next, add the garlic. Stir together and cook for 3 minutes more.

Step 2

To the pot, add the diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato paste, dried oregano, bay leaf, and vegetable broth. Bring to a low boil then add the tortellini. Cook for as long as directed on the package, about 15 minutes, or until tortellini is tender.

Step 3

Remove bay leaf from the soup then squeeze in lemon juice and stir. If the soup isn't brothy enough for you, feel free to add 1-2 cups of water (more/less as desired). Season with salt & pepper, serve warm and enjoy!
