Before starting, preheat the oven to 425°F. Wash and dry all produce.
Peel, then cut carrot into 1/4-inch pieces. Trim green beans, then cut into 1-inch pieces. Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl), then onions, carrots, green beans and 1 tsp sugar (dbl for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring often, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, until carrots are tender-crisp, 4-5 min.
Add garlic and tomato sauce to the pot with the veggies. Cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 1 min. Add Italian Seasoning, broth concentrates, crushed tomatoes and 3 cups water (dbl for 4 ppl). Stir to combine. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
Once boiling, add tortellini to the pot, then reduce heat to medium. Cook, still covered, stirring occasionally, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot, until tortellini is tender, 4-5 min. Season with salt and pepper.
While the soup cooks, cut ciabatta into 1-inch pieces. Toss ciabatta with 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle half the Parmesan over top. Toast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through cooking, until lightly golden, 5-6 min.
Divide the tortellini minestrone between bowls. Top with the cheesy croutons and remaining Parmesan.
