Heat a large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Heat vegetable oil and add diced onion. Saute until onions are soft.

Stir in crushed tomatoes, vegetable broth, basil, Johnny's Seasoning Salt, and Johnny's Seasoned Pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and cover. Let soup simmer for 20-30 minutes.
Add tortellini and spinach and simmer for about ten minutes, until pasta is tender.

Slice baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices. Butter one side and place butter side down in a hot skillet until golden brown. Flip bread slices over and sprinkle with Parmesan and Johnny's Parmesan Garlic Seasoning while the other side gets golden brown. Transfer to a plate and immediately cover loosely with foil if the cheese has not completely melted.
