Sausage, Tortellini, Escarole Soup

I can't really take credit for this recipe because my dad created it when I was young.  Through the years, it has been motified depending on who was cooking it, but it's delicious none the less.  Dad makes it with beef, I use Italian sausage.  My sister uses either one.  Dawn made this for my bridesmaids and me the day of my wedding.  Everyone loved it.  Despite the nerves, I was able to eat a bit of it!  I love it so much, and I hope you will try this soup and enjoy!

Ingredients:
1 lb of Italian Sausage- removed from the casings
1 head of Escarole- cut up
6 oz of cheese tortellini
1 onion-diced
4 large cloves of garlic-minced
2- 32 oz containers of beef broth
1/4 tsp of Italian seasoning
salt and pepper

In a large pot, cook the sausage completely with italian seasoning, onion, and garlic.
Add broth to the pot and bring to a boil.
Add tortellini and cook until it is almost tender then add Escarole until wilted.
Season with salt and pepper.  Top with shredded parmesan cheese.
Enjoy!
