Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion (diced)
  • 2 celery ribs (diced)
  • 2 medium carrots (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 24 ounces broth (chicken or vegetable)
  • 14 ounces canned diced fire roasted tomatoes
  • 15 ounces canned cannellini beans (drained and rinsed)

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 9 ounces refrigerated cheese tortellini (uncooked)
