It’s a good day when I make a soup that everyone in my family will eat (not counting my youngest – we aren’t there yet with him). This Tomato-Spinach Tortellini Soup from the new Skinnytaste One & Done Cookbook (affiliate link) comes together quickly and easily in the Instant Pot (or any pressure cooker) and has been requested several times by my daughter since we first had it. (If you don’t have a pressure cooker, there are stove-top cooking instructions included in the recipe below as well.)

I wish I could say we are in soup weather season here in Florida – we’re not. But, for me, soup is always in season. Lately I’ve been craving soup more than ever, mostly because it’s easy to heat up for lunch or dinner throughout the week making meals a little easier.

Skinnytaste One & Done Cookbook

This latest Skinnytaste cookbook released at the right time for me – I am trying to get reacquainted with my Instant Pot after not using it for a long time. So there are a few recipes in Gina’s cookbook specifically for the Instant Pot that I want to try like the Unstuffed Cabbage Bowls and Turkey Cheeseburger Soup.

TheSkinnytaste One & Done Cookbook (affiliate link) isn’t just for the Instant Pot. The book’s theme revolves around cooking in one vessel, whether it be a pressure cooker, slow cooker, air fryer, sheet pan, skillet or Dutch Oven. Genius, right? I love it.

A few recipes from One & Done that I know my family will love are Giant Turkey Meatball Parmesan, Shepherd’s Pie Stew and Weeknight Chicken Souvlaki. My friend Brittany who also has the cookbook recently tried Mom’s Skillet Chicken Pot Pie and loved it – that is on my list too!

Because I love sharing new cookbooks with you, I’m giving away a copy of the new Skinnytaste One & Done cookbook along with a $50 gift Amazon gift card (see below) to put towards purchasing a new cooking vessel like the ones in the cookbook. I recently purchased new sheet pans and it made me happy. Sometimes new kitchen items are just what we need to get cooking.

Some of my favorite cooking tools are:

What’s in Tomato Spinach Tortellini Soup?

All you need to make this tortellini soup is:

  • butter
  • chopped celery, carrots and onion
  • reduced-sodium vegetable broth
  • 2% milk
  • crushed tomatoes
  • fresh basil
  • bay leaves
  • three-cheese fresh tortellini
  • Pecorino Romano cheese
  • kosher salt and ground pepper
  • baby spinach

How do you make Tomato Spinach Tortellini Soup in the Instant Pot?

  1. Press the saute button on an electric pressure cooker. Add the butter when it has melted, add the celery, carrot and onion. Cook, stirring until tender, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the broth, milk, tomatoes, basil and bay leaves.
  2. Seal and cook on high pressure for 20 minutes, until the vegetables are tender. Quick or natural release, then open when the pressure subsides. Discard the bay leaves and puree the soup right in the pot with an immersion blender until smooth (or in a regular blender, in batches).
  3. Press the saute button and bring the soup back to a boil. Stir in the tortellini, 1/3 cup of the pecorino, the salt and pepper to taste. Cook according to the pasta package directions, adding the spinach at the last minute. To serve, ladle into 8 bowls and top with pecorino, if desired.

How do you make Tomato Spinach Tortellini Soup on the stove-top?

  1. To make this in a large pot or Dutch oven, saute over medium-high heat in step 1. Add 1/4 cup water with the broth. Bring to a boil, then cook, covered, on low heat and double the cook time.
  2. Add the tortellini at the end, cooking according to package directions.

  1. Great recipe!

  2. I am so making this soup! 😋

  3. I use my pressure cooker a lot 

  4. I use my slow cooker, electric skillet and pots and pans to cook. I haven’t tried an instant pot.

  5. My pressure cooker! This soup looks fantastic!

    • What do you make in your pressure cooker the most? I’m trying to make more “meals” in there. I use it to cook meat, hard boil eggs, potatoes and make soup, but I’m ready to try something new.

  6. I actually use my toaster oven the most! I use it literally every single day

    • You reminded me about my toaster oven – it is a lifesaver!! I make pita pizzas in it all the time (among other things lol).

  7. I use my sheet pans the most. Love roasting vegetables or putting everything on one sheet pan for easy cleanup. 

  8. Sounds like I do need an instant pot in my life!

  9. I am dying to try out an air fryer! 

  10. The kitchen tool I use most is a knife. But since that’s boring (LOL) my second most used tool is a garlic press. I’ve tried the jarred stuff, but it’s just not as potent as fresh.

    • Annette – I’ve answered this question with knife before too! It really is my most used tool, I’m with you! Garlic presses are up there too!

  11. That soup looks amazing and I love skinny taste recipes. 

  12. a sheet pa is great for roasting veggies as they taste the best add flavor to soups

  13. I love to bake and make pizza dough so my stand mixer gets used quite often. Although, lately I’ve been making dough with my hands, which is extremely relaxing!

  28. I think I use sheet pans the most, followed by cast iron skillets and a slow cooker.

  29. I would have to say that I use the sheet pan, skillet and Dutch oven pretty much equally . I do use a pressure cooker but I am still getting familiar with it. The recipe for the soup looks amazing. I love tortellini and be trying the recipe soon. Thanks so much for the giveaway! Love your recipes and blog.

  30. I use my slow cooker/pressure cooker about evenly.

  31. I love my cutting boards I have all sorts of sizes.

  45. I made this tonight, very tasty and easy. Instead of boiling the pasta, I pureed the veggie part then put the instant pot back on for 5 minutes.






  46. Using what we have at home already, this was tonight’s dinner. I made it in the IP. It turned out really well. For the most part, I followed the recipe. I added some chopped kale. Very tasty. Relatively simple to make. I’m loving my IP. Thanks for the recipe…….






  47. Just made this. Wow. Good soup.  I cooked the onions, celery, and onions in the microwave. I used the 1 1/2 tbsp butter to mix with 1 1/2 tbsp white flour to thicken the milk a little. I also added 2 tsp sugar I didn’t have any percorino cheese or spinach. I used a 10 oz bag steamable kale instead but I wouldn’t do it again. The soup is pretty leafy with little pieces of kale throughout.   I was surprised how thick  it got using the crushed tomatoes. I might try diced tomatoes next time.  Of course I always add garlic powder, onion powder and parsley to practically every soup.  I think it will taste better after it stands a while too. This soup was great  I give it 5 stars. My first time using tortellini. The changes I made added the calories to 245-250 calories.  Still ok tho. Very filling soup
