This tortellini soup is one of those that I would have skipped right over if my friend, Heather, hadn’t made it for me one day for lunch. She knows I love soup, and so she whipped this up while also being a full-time mom to 3 little ones at the time. It was delicious and quick! It has become a repeat in our home – my kids enjoy it and it is filling! It is a one-pot meal, but you can always add bread and a side salad if you like!
Tortellini Soup with Sausage and Spinach
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb. Italian sausage
- 64 oz low-sodium chicken broth
- 1/2 - 1 cup water add more or less as desired for your taste

- 1 - 2 package(s) cheese tortellini
- 1 bag fresh baby spinach

LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE PARTY
What began as a simple gesture to introduce my daughter to a wonderful book series has become a special evening ritual for us- reading Laura Ingalls Wilder’s Little House books! I must admit, I didn’t realize quite how interesting these books would be to her, but she cannot wait to read all nine in the series. It was only fitting that her birthday party focus around Little House on the Prairie! Together, we had a ball planning all of the details of her party that related to the books in some way. At Camille’s request, we focused on some of her favorite parts of the stories… prairie flowers, covered wagons, tee pees, the colors in the drawings of the books, and “pretty”…because “Ma” liked things to be pretty!
