This recipe is super easy and quick. If you don't have Trader Joe's near you, I'm sure you could substitute equivalent ingredients. 
2 containers of low-sodium Roasted Red-Pepper Tomato Soup
1 carton of low sodium chicken or veggie stock
2 containers of pesto tortellini
2 cans white beans
1 bag of baby spinach
Bring both containers of soup and 1/2 of the carton of stock to a boil.
Add tortellini, and simmer to cook for 3-4 minutes
Add both cans of beans
Add bag of baby spinach (you can chop it first or not - depending on your energy level)
Stir until spinach wilts
Add stock as needed if you want the broth to be a little thinner
Season with oregano & basil
Add a little bit of Parm or Romano cheese when serving
The only other ingredient I would add if I had it in the house is a drizzle of fresh pesto on top.
