Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized dutch oven pot over medium high heat.
Add the minced garlic, sundried tomatoes (if using), and fresh tomatoes, sautéing until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
Stir in the Tuscan Marry Me Blend, smoked paprika, and salt until mixed well.
Incorporate the tomato paste and flour, stirring until combined.
Gradually add the chicken or vegetable stock, stirring frequently to avoid lumps, until the mixture thickens.
Mix in the lemon juice, heavy cream, tortellini, bay leaves (if desired), and kale; stir to combine.
Let the soup simmer for 8-10 minutes until thickened and tortellini are fully cooked.
Stir in the freshly-grated parmesan until melted and smooth.
Serve immediately, topped with more parmesan if desired, and enjoy with garlic bread or a salad.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use homemade Tuscan Marry Me Blend if possible.
Adjust the consistency by varying the amount of broth or tomato paste to suit your taste.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, reheat gently.
