Tortellini, White Bean and Spinach Soup

1 teaspoon olive oil
2 cups chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 cups coarsely chopped spinach
2/3 cup water
1 (16-ounce) can navy beans, drained
2 (14 1/2-ounce) cans vegetable broth
1 (14.5-ounce) can no-salt-added whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped
1 (14-ounce) can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
1 (9-ounce) package uncooked fresh cheese tortellini
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese

Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion, bell pepper, seasoning, and garlic; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Add spinach and next 5 ingredients (spinach through artichokes); bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer 2 minutes. Add tortellini; cook until thoroughly heated. Sprinkle with cheese.

You can add chicken or something if you want meat in it. You can also throw in a hot and crusty loaf of French bread and a nice salad.
