Ingredients

2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 medium yellow onion diced, about 1 cup
2 teaspoons garlic minced
3 (14.5 oz. cans) petite diced tomatoes with juice
1 (14.5 oz. can) tomato sauce
3 cups chicken stock or broth
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 Tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup grated Parmesan Cheese
1 (20 oz. pkg.) cheese tortellini refrigerated

Instructions

To a Dutch oven or medium stock pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onion and saute for 5-7 minutes or until nearly translucent. Add the minced garlic and saute for another minute. Remove from heat. Transfer mixture to blender.
To the onion mixture in the blender, add 2 cans of the diced tomatoes. Blend together for 30-45 seconds or until smooth. Pour the puree back into the Dutch oven. To the puree, add the last can of diced tomatoes (reserve 1/2 c. for garnish if desired), can of tomato sauce, chicken stock, heavy cream, sugar, salt, pepper, oregano, basil, and nutmeg. Stir well, and heat over medium high heat until mixture comes to a simmer. Reduce to medium heat and continue to simmer for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, add the Parmesan cheese and tortellini. Bring back to medium high heat and bring back to a simmer. Reduce to medium low heat and simmer for 5 more minutes.
Remove from heat and ladle into bowls. Garnish with additional Parmesan cheese, tomatoes and basil, if desired.

Notes

NOTE: Have an immersion blender? Instead of transferring the sauteed onions and garlic to a blender to puree with the tomatoes, feel free to keep these in the pot and use an immersion blender.
