    When we publish recipes here, they’re often recipes that can be prepared quickly. That does not mean we don’t enjoy cooking more elaborate meals occasionally. Quite the opposite. But during the week, it’s all about »quick and easy« recipes. This Quick Tortellini, Bell Pepper & Tomato Soup falls into this category, for example. Perfect after work and absolutely delicious! That’s how it should always be, right?!

    We like uncomplicated recipes that allow you to quickly put something tasty on the table. And if everything can be prepared in one large pot or a pan without having to dirty a ton of other equipment, we’re especially happy. Who wants to spend ages at the sink after a relaxing dinner, washing loads of dishes? Right?! The less, the better! Lucky you if you got a dishwasher…

    Soups aren’t usually our first choice for dinner. I’ll be completely honest about that. At least not those thin soups without much in them. This tomato soup doesn’t fall into that category, of course. The tortellini and veggies provide plenty to bite. That’s the only way we can justify »liquid food«…

    Preparing this soup couldn’t be easier. Once you’ve chopped and prepared the ingredients, the soup comes together quickly. You basically just sauté everything one after the other, then deglaze with liquid and season it. After a short cooking time, you add the tortellini to the pot, and a few minutes later, everything is done and ready to be served. Sounds doable, right?!

    One-pot soups like this are always a good choice when you need something quick after work but still want your dinner to be delicious. We have many more one-pot recipes on the blog that are also worth trying, of course. So, if you’re looking for more, you’ll definitely find something. You can, for example, enter the word »one-pot« in the search bar, and it will show you everything that’s available.

    One of our favorite one-pot dishes is certainly our One-Pot Pasta with Broccoli & Creamy Ricotta-Lemon Sauce. It might not look like much, but it tastes absolutely spectacular! The sauce makes all the difference compared to other pasta dishes! You should absolutely try it!

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch

    1. Start by preparing the ingredients – dice the bacon, peel, and dice/chop the onion and garlic. Peel the carrots and cut them into small pieces. Remove the seeds from the bell peppers and then cut them into small pieces as well. Have everything ready for cooking.

    2. Heat up a large Dutch oven* with some olive oil. Add the diced bacon and fry briefly (optional). If you want to keep the dish veggies-only, simply leave out the bacon. Next, add the onion and garlic and sauté briefly. When both have softened a little, add the carrot and bell pepper pieces. Stir-fry everything for 3-4 minutes. When the carrots and bell peppers have softened a little, deglaze with the veggie stock and puréed tomatoes. Add the dried oregano and season with a generous amount of salt and pepper. Cover the pot, reduce the heat slightly, and let the soup simmer for about 5-6 minutes.

    3. Next, add the sour cream and Parmesan cheese and stir in, then add the Tortellini and let them cook in the soup for about 3-4 minutes until »al dente«. Season the finished soup with some more salt and pepper to your liking. Serve in bowls with some basil leaves and freshly grated Parmesan on top.

    Note: If you get heartburn from tomatoes, you can add 1 teaspoon of baking powder to the soup – this helps to reduce the acidity.

    1. Als Erstes die Zutaten vorbereiten – dazu den Speck würfeln, die Zwiebel und den Knoblauch schälen und würfeln bzw. hacken. Die Karotten schälen und in kleine Stücke schneiden, die Paprikaschoten von den Innereien befreien und dann ebenfalls in kleine Stücke schneiden. Alles zum Kochen bereithalten.

    2. Einen großen (gusseisernen) Topf* mit etwas Olivenöl erhitzen. Den gewürfelten Speck dazugeben und kurz auslassen (optional). Wer das Gericht fleischlos halten möchte, lässt den Speck einfach weg. Als Nächstes die Zwiebel und den Knoblauch dazugeben und kurz andünsten. Wenn beides etwas weicher geworden ist, die Karotten- und Paprikastücke dazugeben – alles für 3-4 Minuten unter ständigem Rühren anbraten. Wenn Karotten und Paprika etwas weich geworden sind, mit Gemüsebrühe und pürierten Tomaten ablöschen. Den Oregano ebenfalls dazugeben und mit einer guten Portion Salz und Pfeffer würzen. Den Topf abdecken, die Hitzezufuhr etwas reduzieren und die Suppe für etwa 5-6 Minuten köcheln lassen.

    3. Als Nächstes den Schmand und den Parmesan dazugeben und unterrühren, dann die Tortellini ebenfalls in den Topf dazugeben und für etwa 3-4 Minuten in der Suppe mitkochen lassen, bis sie »al dente« sind. Die fertige Suppe nach Belieben noch einmal mit etwas Salz und Pfeffer abschmecken, auf Schüsseln verteilen und dann mit Basilikumblättern und frisch geriebenem Parmesan dekorieren.

    Hinweis: Wer Probleme mit Tomaten und Sodbrennen hat, kann am Ende noch 1 TL Backpulver in die Suppe einrühren – das bringt die Säure etwas runter.
