• 3 large organic carrots, cut into small dice
• 1 package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained
• 1  15-ounce can cannellini beans
• 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• 2 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
• 1  7-ounce package cheese filled tortellini, cooked according to package directions and drained.

1.  Brown Italian sausage in hot oil in a Dutch oven until it crumbles and is no longer pink.  Add the minced garlic to the sausage and continue to sauté 2 minutes.
2.   Add chicken broth and diced carrots to the pot.  Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until carrots are tender.  Stir in spinach and cannellini beans.  Continue to simmer until heated through.
