This Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup is the best cozy soup to have as the weather starts to get colder. The balance of creaminess, savouriness and earthiness makes this an incredible meal to make annually after Summer!
Soup is such a great meal to make and meal prep as it is super easy and almost always freezer-friendly! You’re able to make huge batches and store them in the freezer for later so it’s less cooking for you.

PIN Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup FOR LATER:
I’ve actually made this soup over and over again and got the inspiration from this Cozy Autumn Wild Rice Soup from Gimme Some Oven and have tweaked it and tried it in many different ways over the years!
Last year I post an Instagram story on a leftover turkey variation I made and got lots of replies on how to make it! This year, I decided to share a vegetarian version and it is so delicious!
This soup embodies the coziness of Fall and I’m so excited to be sharing this with you all!

HERE IS HOW TO MAKE FALL VEGETARIAN TORTELLINI SOUP:
WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?
The ingredients for Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup can be found at your local grocery stores. You can find the sweet potato, kale, mushrooms, celery, onion and garlic in the produce section. You can find the vegetable broth and all the seasonings in the pantry aisles. You can find the cream in the dairy and fresh tortellini near the deli area!
WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?
The ingredients to make this super yummy Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup are:
- Cheese Tortellini
- Heavy Cream
- Vegetable Broth
- Kale
- Sweet Potato
- Celery
- Mushrooms
- Onion
- Garlic
- Old Bay
- Garlic Powder
- Onion Powder
- Bay Leaves
- Salt
- Pepper
- Olive Oil
- Flour/Water (optional, to thicken)
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
For this recipe, you’ll need a soup pot or dutch oven! I used my dutch oven from Amazon that I love!! Highly highly recommend it! You’ll need to chop all the vegetables so a knife and chopping board are needed as well as a soup ladle!
Other than that, you’ll just need to do this on the stove. If you want to use an Instant Pot or Crock Pot/Slow Cooker for this, that is totally fine as well!
WHAT ARE THE STEPS TO PREPARE?
For this Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup recipe, you’ll need to:
- Prepare – and measure all the ingredients before you start chopping
- Chop – the vegetables to bite size pieces and diced the onions and garlic
- Saute – all the vegetables and seasonings in a bit of olive oil then add the liquids
- Simmer – everything together for about 30 minutes or so
- Serve – cool and enjoy!
CAN I SUB ANYTHING OUT?
You sure can make substitutions for this recipe! The only ingredients that I would avoid substituting are the seasonings but other than that, you can really do whatever you’d like!
To make this vegan, you’d want to substitute the cream for coconut milk or any dairy alternative product. Coconut milk will make this dish super creamy but you can use unsweetened oat milk or almond milk too. I used cheese tortellini for this so you can use vegan tortellini OR just regular pasta or wild rice works too!
To make this regular with no dietary restrictions, you can use chicken broth instead of vegetarian broth, any tortellini pasta you’d like and also put in meat pieces. I’ve done sausage, chicken and turkey breast variations which tastes awesome!
WHAT DOES IT TASTE LIKE?
Amazing, just amazing! This soup is very earthy, savoury, sweet and creamy. It’s a heavier and more filling soup which is perfect for the colder weather. The mushrooms and kale bring out the earthiness. The sweet potato gives you a sweet bite. The celery, vegetable broth and seasonings bring out the savoury. The heavy cream tie is altogether to make it really decadent and creamy!
I used cheese tortellini for this one but there are so many different tortellini’s! I have to admit, I was super overwhelmed in choosing which one I wanted to use for this recipe! I love the butternut squash ones and sausage!
HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?
This Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup keeps for a good amount of time! I usually split it into 3-4 batches and eat it for 2-3 meals. I usually like to keep it for a max of 4 days in the back of the fridge as there is dairy in it and reheat what I need in a bowl in the microwave. Be sure to not overheat it as you’ll make the sweet potato even softer and it’ll be all mushy!
WHAT GOES WITH THIS FALL VEGETARIAN TORTELLINI SOUP?
This Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup can be eaten with:
- Crackers – Saltine Crackers or any you have on hand
- Bread – Fresh french bread or garlic bread
- Rice – Can be inside the soup or just eaten with this on the side
- Salad – Small side salad or pasta salad
- Grilled Cheese or Half a Sandwich – Half sandwich and soup, yes please!
- Roast Chicken – Perfect to have with a fresh rotisserie chicken!
WHAT ARE OTHER VARIATIONS OF TORTELLINI SOUP?
Other similar recipes that you may enjoy like this Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup are:
- Sausage Tortellini Soup – Sausage is a great addition to tortellini soup
- Tuscan Tortellini Soup – I love tuscan inspired dishes so I highly recommend this version!
- Creamy Chicken Tortellini Soup – Chicken or Turkey soup is awesome for colder dinner nights!

INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS DISH?
Honestly, I am just so in love with Fall and always want to soak in as much of the season I can! I am always searching up recipes to make during the Fall weather that also takes in Fall produce. I searched up this recipe on Pinterest a while back and have made it every year since then!
It’s such a hearty recipe and is perfect to enjoy in October! I love watching Halloween movies and eating this on a cool Fall evening or even making this after Thanksgiving!
HOW CAN I MEAL PREP THIS RECIPE?
You can easily meal prep this Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup recipe! You can pack this and heat it up in the microwave with a side salad, sandwich or crackers! It’s great for 2-3 days/meals and you can eat it for lunch and/or dinner!
Store your soup if you’re taking it out of the house in a glass bowl so it’s easy to reheat! If you’re eating it at home, just heat it up in a bowl. I also love heating this soup on the stove but just ensure that you are not overcooking it! Heat it until it is warm enough to heat and turn off the stove!
ANY OTHER NOTES?
Yes! You can make this Fall Vegetarian Tortellini Soup in a slow cooker or Instapot as well! You can dump all the ingredients and cook on low for 6-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours!
Also, try to avoid opening the container unless you’re getting a portion. It does have dairy so it’s best to keep the container closed when you can. DO NOT leave it sitting on the countertop! Take a portion and put it back in the fridge right away!

Hi Lynn, this recipe looks GREAT! I am such a fan of tortellini and soup but I’ve honestly never thought of putting them together. I’d properly add loads of garlic as it’s my favourite in soups. Thanks for sharing a great recipe! Alicia
