Hello cozy soup. I gotta tell you, I’m the kind of person who can eat soup all year long. I don’t care what the weather is, soup is comfort and I love a good, classic comfort food. This easy and deliciously satisfying Instant Pot Tortellini Soup is one my favorites because you get all the goods in one place. Cheesy, creamy, hearty, filling and packed with veggies. The best of all worlds!

I’m definitely known for some of my soups and stews recipes. For example, my Instant Pot Lemon Chicken Soup, or my Healing Turmeric Lentil & Farro Soup that literally saved my life as a new mom. Or my Easy Fresh Carrot Soup that comes together quickly and will warm your soul from the inside out. Let’s just say, soups are kinda my thing. You know what else is kinda my thing? Ground turkey. And if you need another quick and easy meal using my favorite ground meat, try my 30-Minute Turkey Quinoa Chili!

What makes this soup so special, you ask? Well, there’s a few things. One, it’s done is less than 30 minutes. For real, though. Start to finish, in 30 minutes or less, your hot, steaming soup will be on the table. Two, it’s versatile. Use whatever tortellini you like (I used cheese), any veggies you have on hand and make is a spicy or mild as you like! And three, it’s freaking delicious.

Can I use dried tortellini?

Yes, but you will need to cook it for a little but longer under pressure. About half the amount of time it calls for in boiling water. So, if the package calls for boiling the dried tortellini for 12 minutes, you will pressure cook them for 6 minutes.
