Chicken Alfredo Tortellini Soup Made Skinny

Chicken Alfredo Tortellini Soup Made Skinny

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons reduced-fat butter or Smart Balance Light
  • 1 cup onions, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons fresh garlic, minced
  • 6 cups Swanson's reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 (15 ounce) jar Alfredo sauce, I use Classico or Ragu, See shopping tips
  • 1 cup fat-free sour cream
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 (9 oz) package Buitoni refrigerated three-cheese tortellini, see shopping tips
  • 1 (6 oz) bag fresh baby spinach
  • Ground black pepper, to taste
  • 6 teaspoons Parmesan cheese, grated (optional for topping)

Instructions
 

  • Cook onions in microwave for 2 minutes to soften. In a large nonstick pot, melt butter. Stir in softened onions and garlic. Cook until onions are translucent, about 3 minutes. Stir often. Stir in chicken broth and Alfredo sauce. Cook over medium heat until heated through, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in sour cream and cooked chicken; simmer for 10 minutes. Mix cheese tortellini into chicken mixture, cover pot and simmer for 10 minutes. Mix in spinach, cover and continue to simmer for 2 additional minutes. Check cheese tortellini for doneness. You want it al dente (cooked just enough to retain a somewhat firm texture)
  • Ladle 2 cups soup into each bowl and sprinkle each with 1 teaspoon of Parmesan cheese, if desired.
