Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat, add bacon and cook until crispy. I like to chop up my bacon before I cook it, makes the cooking time quicker and all of the bacon seems more evenly cooked. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate; set aside.

To the same skillet add the sweet Italian sausage and cook until browned, be sure to crumble it as it cooks. Drain and set aside.

In a large pot heat olive oil over medium heat. Add garlic and onion. Cook until onions are translucent, takes only a couple of minutes. Add chicken broth, stir together and bring to a boil. Once it is brought to a boil add potatoes and cook until tender, about 8-10 minutes. Meanwhile, cook tortellini as directed on the packaging

Add in the cooked sausage and spinach until spinach begins to wilt, 2-3 minutes. Gently stir in heavy cream until heated through, 3-4 minutes. At this point season with salt and pepper, to taste. Once the soup is hot, add in cooked tortellini, remove from heat and garnish with crumbled bacon and serve.
