Add flour and stir, cooking for 1-2 minutes. Add oregano, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper, and ground mustard. Stir in the chicken broth. You can buy store bought chicken broth or learn to make your own chicken broth. Next stir in the half and half.
Add frozen tortellini and chopped spinach. Heat 5-7 minutes until spinach is wilted and tortellini is cooked completely through. Soup will thicken as it continues to heat up.
