Sausage Tortellini Soup

I love to cook! I took cake decorating in 7th grade and have a degree in restaurant management. My husband and I opened and owned a bakery for 9 years. We live at 5000 ft so I can adjust most recipes for high altitude. Succumbed to the instant pot craze after loving my stovetop pressure cooker & am a convert. Love to ski, bike, garden & cook.

1 pound Italian sausage (remove from casings)

1 medium onion (chopped)

2 teaspoons minced garlic (about 4 cloves)

½ cup diced carrot

4 cups chicken stock (unsalted or low sodium)

28 ounces canned crushed tomatoes

1 ½ teaspoons dried basil (or about 1 ½ to 2 tablespoons fresh chopped basil)

1 teaspoon dried oregano (or about 1 tablespoon fresh chopped oregano)

1 medium zucchini (halved lengthwise and sliced thinly)

1 to 2 cups spinach leaves (coarsely chopped), optional

9 ounces fresh cheese tortellini
