Italian Antipasto Tortellini Soup Made Skinny
This heartwarming soup is so quick to fix on a busy night and full of healthy, tasty ingredients! In the past, I’ve shared an antipasto tortellini pasta salad. So, I thought it might be fun to create this main course soup using the same fabulous flavors. Each large 2 cup serving has 318 calories and 8 grams of fat.

Shopping Tips
I used Trader Joe’s Cheese Tortellini. It’s fresh pasta and found in the refrigerated section. Most supermarkets carry a few brands, such as Buitoni. I used Gallo reduced-fat salami. This brand and other brands are available in the luncheon meat section of the supermarket. In addition, I like Columbus Lite Italian Dry Salami and it’s gluten-free. I found it at Von’s/Safeway in the deli section. Or you could use Hormel’s 70% reduced-fat turkey pepperoni. You’ll find it in the luncheon meat section of most supermarkets.

Italian Antipasto Tortellini Soup Made Skinny
Ingredients
- 1 cup onions, chopped
- 1 cup red bell peppers, chopped
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 2 cups lite salami, cut in fours or lite turkey pepperoni, see shopping tips
- 1 (48 oz) container Swanson’s reduced-sodium chicken broth or 1 (32 oz) container and 1 (14.5 oz) can
- 1 (14.5 oz) can petite diced tomatoes, undrained
- 1 (15 oz) can garbanzo beans or cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 (9-10 oz) package refrigerated cheese tortellini, see shopping tips
- ½ small can sliced black olives, drained
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach, packed
- ¾ teaspoon dried basil
- Black pepper, to taste
- Grated Parmesan cheese, optional topping
Instructions
- In a small microwave-safe bowl, add onions and red bell peppers. Cook in microwave for 2 minutes, to soften.
- Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a large nonstick pot or pan. Add garlic and salami and sauté for 1 minute.
- Stir in broth, tomatoes and beans. Bring to a boil. Stir in tortellini. Turn heat down and simmer 5 minutes until pasta is almost tender. Stir often. Mix in black olives, spinach, basil and a little black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes until spinach is wilted and tortellini is tender.
- Ladle into bowls. Top with a little Parmesan cheese, if desired. This soup freezes great. Since the pasta absorbs some of the liquid, when reheating, you might need to add a little more chicken broth.

Tried this recipe?Let me know how it was!
Hi Nancy ,
This looks great . I have a question : About how many ounces of salami should I buy to equal two cups . In the photo it looks like white beans , maybe navy or great northern . Did you still use garbanzo beans ?
I cant wait to try this .
Ni Nancy ,
Are there black olives in this ? Just trying to make sure that I have everything . We love antipasto .
Sorry Robin. My mistake. i just added the 1/2 can black olives. The WW points are all still the same.
You can use any white bean such as garbanzo, cannellini, or navy. As far as the salami, just buy 1 package of Gallo reduced-fat salami. You’ll have plenty leftover and you can freeze it for another use.
I hope you thoroughly enjoy this soup Robin!
My very best wishes,
Nancy
