Creamy Tuscan Ravioli Soup

When I spotted this Tuscan Ravioli Soup recipe over at my friend Gina’s blog last winter, I knew I needed to make it immediately!

It starts with a creamy tomato base that’s loaded with Italian sausage and cheese ravioli. I changed up a few ingredients based on what I had on hand, and it was a huge hit.

Made this tonight โ€“ delicious! Super quick, super tasty. Definitely a recipe to repeat. ~ Karen

My whole family loved it, proclaiming it one of the best soups I’ve ever made! It’s become a staple on our menu during the fall and winter.

Of course, anything that features pasta is bound to be a hit in a houseful of hungry teenage boys. They hardly even noticed the spinach–which isn’t something they would normally eat.

Creamy Tuscan Ravioli Soup

And it’s so easy–you can have this creamy, filling soup on the table in about 30 minutes.

Nothing beats a warm bowl of soup on a chilly night, and this one is hearty enough that I know no one (not even my teenage boys) will leave the table hungry.

I have used this recipe several times. I found Tortellini to be a good sub for the ravioli. This soup is a family favorite! ~ Chuck

This recipe does make a lot of soup, but it freezes well. And I don’t know about you, but I really love having leftovers for busy weeknights when I don’t have time to cook.

I know we’ll be making hearty, pasta filled soup again and again!

I made this today and itโ€™s absolutely delicious and super easy! ~ Adrienne

This is super yummy and so easy to make. I had the onion, garlic and spinach all chopped up ahead of time, which made this soup come together super quick. Easy weeknight dinner. I served it with some garlic bread, but a nice green salad would be a great addition as well. ~ Christine

Made this last night and it was absolutely delicious. The only change I made was that I used half of the meat. Highly recommend this recipe! ~ Janice

I cook for a hospice house, and we provide complimentary soup every day for our visitors. This soup was a hit! I had several of our visitors ask for the recipe. ~ Michelle

Made this tonight and it was a huge hit! My picky eater didnโ€™t even notice the spinach. This will definitely become a winter staple!! ~ Angie

    How does this hold up in a crock pot? I would make it according to the instructions and reheat the next day in the crockpot.

      The ravioli wouldn’t hold up great. You could add ravioli towards the end of the cooking time in the crockpot, depending on if it were fresh or frozen. If you’re heating it in the crockpot as leftovers, I’d keep half out without the ravioli for putting in the crock pot the next day.

  • All I have is frozen ravioli, do I need to thaw it first?

    • A
      Danelle

      Nope! Just might need to cook it a few minutes longer.

  • Adrienne

    I made this today and itโ€™s absolutely delicious and super easy!

  • Made yesterday and eating left overs tonight. I made half the recipe and followed closely. Loved loved loved this recipe. Making next month for cookie day with friends.

  • Christine

    I cook for a hospice house, and we provide complimentary soup every day for our visitors. This soup was a hit! I had several of our visitors ask for the recipe.

    Ditto for the Southwest Pork Stew!

  • Pardon. Left review here for another recipe! I am doing this recipe tomorrow night. Bought ingredients today. Will you remove my review? Apologize.

  • Made this tonight and it was a huge hit! My picky eater didn’t even notice the spinach. This will definitely become a winter staple!!

  • This is delicious! I just made this recipe with a few tweaks: a lot of garlic, twice the amount of Basil and Oregano, and replaced the half and half with coconut milk. It was very creamy and flavorful.

    Thank you for sharing!

  • Christina

    I could have easily made half of this for our family of four. Super delicious though! Will definitely make again.

  • Marilyn Lee

    Very good! I left out the meat and added more spinach. Yum @cantstopcooking

  • I have used this recipe several times. I found Tortellini to be a good sub for the ravioli. This soup is a family favorite!

  • I am going to make this without the sausage. Has anyone tried that? My teen daughter is a quasi vegetarian.

  • Rebecca

    I used 1 pound of meat instead of 2 and I thought it was plenty.

  • Larissa Vinci

    You said this soup does freeze easily…do you make exactly how you have the directions and then freeze as is?

    • A
      Danelle

      Yes. Although you don’t need to heat it all the way through before freezing.

      • Rebecca

        I would think that since it has pasta in it, it would not freeze well.

  • Made this tonight – delicious! Super quick, super tasty. Definitely a recipe to repeat.

  • This sounds wonderful, Danelle. I think I’m going to have to put it on my list of things to make soon.

  • Sherri B.

    This sounds delicious…thank you for sharing!
